ActionList
An ActionList is a list of items that can be activated or selected. ActionList is the base component for many menu-type components, including ActionMenu and SelectPanel.
import {ActionList} from '@primer/react'
Leading visuals are optional and appear at the start of an item. They can be octicons, avatars, and other custom visuals that fit a small area.
Trailing visual and trailing text can display auxiliary information. They're placed at the right of the item, and can denote status, keyboard shortcuts, or be used to set expectations about what the action does.
Item dividers allow users to parse heavier amounts of information. They're placed between items and are useful in complex lists, particularly when descriptions or multi-line text is present.
When you want to add links to the List instead of actions, use ActionList.LinkItem
