Project Structure: It will look like the following.

Example: Now write down the following code in the App.js file. Here, App is our default component where we have written our code.

App.js

import React from 'react';
import "antd/dist/antd.css";
import { Menu } from 'antd';

const { SubMenu } = Menu;

export default function App() {

  return (
    <div style={{
      display: 'block', width: 700, padding: 30
    }}>
      <h4>ReactJS Ant-Design Menu Component</h4>
      <Menu
        defaultOpenKeys={['1']}
        defaultSelectedKeys={['1']}
        style={{ width: 300 }}
        mode="inline"
      >
        <SubMenu key="1" title="Settings">
