Can't make a responsive navbar with a .server.jsx component with Hydrogen / React

Question

I can't make my Navbar responsive and I don't know why. When I make a const in the Layout.server.jsx, that make an error.

I think I can't make a onClick event on a button, but I don't know why and how to resolve it.

You can find the git repository here: https://github.com/imnotremi/hydrogen-test 

Please note that in the hydrogen.config.js, you have to enter the free to use credential of hydrogen :

Shopify Domain : "hydrogen-preview.myshopify.com" Storfront Acces Token : "3b580e70970c4528da70c98e097c2fa0"

Here's my code :

import { useShopQuery, CacheLong, gql, Seo, Link } from "@shopify/hydrogen"; 
import { Suspense } from "react";
import CartBubble from "./CartBubble.client";

export default function Layout({children}) { 

    const data = useShopQuery({ 
    query: SHOP_QUERY, 
    cache: CacheLong(), 
    preload: true,
    }); 

    const { data: { shop }, } = data; 


    return ( 

    <>

        <Seo 
            type="defaultSeo"
            data={{
                title: shop.name,
                description: shop.description
            }}
        />

        <header className="">


            <div className="text-center bg-transparent">

                <div className=" container flex items-center justify-between py-4 ">



                    <Link to="/" className=" font-bold logo min-w-[33.33%]">
                    {shop.name}
                    </Link>



                    <ul className=" flex place-self-center text-center justify-around list-none font-nav gap-3 max-w-[33.33%]">
                        <li className="text-slate-600 hover:text-slate-800"><a href="/catalog">Catalog</a></li>

                </div>

            </div>

        </header>

        <main> 
            <Suspense>{children}</Suspense>
        </main> 



    </>
); }  

    const SHOP_QUERY = gql` 
    query ShopInfo { 
        shop { 
            name 
            description 
        } 
        } 
    `;

I have try to make a const in Layout.server.jsx, also to create a Layout.client.jsx component but that doesn't work either.

I'm not familiar with shopify-hydrogen. But I would give you idea of how this can be done purely in tailwindcss

You'll have to work with relative absolute and z-index tailwind classes to overlap the navbar on the contents of the page.

Logic:

Have parent relative having z-index value less than the child absolute div which will be used for navbar.

Output in large device:

Output in smaller device:

Code:

    <div class="md:bg-yellow-400 h-screen relative z-0 flex bg-gray-500">
      <div class="invisible md:visible bg-blue-400 w-1/3">
        <div class="flex h-full items-center justify-center text-4xl">
          Desktop Navbar
        </div>
      </div>
      <div class="text-4xl">
        The main content of the file and it has it's content all over the page
        and i want to build a navbar on top of this
      </div>
      <div
        class="absolute inset-y-0 left-0 z-10 bg-green-400 w-1/3 md:hidden"
      >
        <div class="flex h-full items-center justify-center text-4xl">
          Mobile Navbar
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
