`Steps` is a navigation bar that guides users through the steps of a task.
## When To Use
When the task is complicated or has a certain sequence in the series of subtasks, we can decompose it into several steps to make things easier.
## API
```jsx
< Steps >
< Step title = "first step" / >
< Step title = "second step" / >
< Step title = "third step" / >
< / Steps >
```
