# Steps Component

 Steps components visualize multi-step processes, guides, or workflows by displaying sequential stages. Built with semantic HTML and flexible layouts, steps show progress through setup wizards, tutorials, and complex procedures. The Frutjam steps system supports multiple sizes, colors, structures, and completion states—ideal for form wizards, installation guides, and progress tracking.
