# Homepage Menu

This section provides an overview of menu items, how to access them, and how they can be customized. Both the default and velocity themes display categories in the menu items.

# Accessing Categories

To access the menu categories, you can utilize the CategoryRepository class located in the Webkul\Category\Repositories\CategoryRepository namespace. This repository class provides useful methods for retrieving and managing categories.

One such method is getVisibleCategoryTree, which returns a list of all visible categories under the specified root category. You can pass the ID of the main root category as a parameter to this method.

# Example from the Default Theme

In the default theme's blade file, you can find the following code snippet:

@foreach (app('Webkul\Category\Repositories\CategoryRepository')->getVisibleCategoryTree(core()->getCurrentChannel()->root_category_id) as $category)
    // ...
@endforeach

You can iterate through the retrieved categories and customize the menu according to your specific requirements.

TIP

The CategoryRepository class provides several other methods for working with categories. Take some time to explore and utilize those methods as needed.
