`Steps` is a navigation bar that guides users through the steps of a task.

## When To Use

When a given task is complicated or has a certain sequence in the series of subtasks, we can decompose it into several steps to make things easier.

### Usage upgrade after 4.24.0

<Alert message="After version 4.24.0, we provide a simpler usage &lt;Steps items={[...]} /&gt; with better performance and potential of writing simpler code style in your applications. Meanwhile, we deprecated the old usage in browser console, we will remove it in antd 5.0."></Alert>

```jsx
// works when >=4.24.0, recommended ✅
const items = [{ title: 'first step' }, { title: 'second step' }, { title: 'third step' }];
return <Steps items={items} />;

// works when <4.24.0, deprecated when >=4.24.0 🙅🏻‍♀️
<Steps>
  <Step title="first step" />
  <Step title="second step" />
  <Step title="third step" />
</Steps>;
```
