How to attach an ADF Language Menu as main menu
```html
<button mat-icon-button [matMenuTriggerFor]="langMenu">
<mat-icon>language</mat-icon>
</button>
<mat-menu #langMenu="matMenu">
<adf-language-menu></adf-language-menu>
</mat-menu>
```
## Details
In the previous example we are using the ADF Language Menu as main menu.
The [Language Menu component](../core/language-menu.component.md) is able to fetch all the languages from the "app.config.json".
This is how the configuration looks like in the the "app.config.json"
```json
"languages": [
{
"key": "en",
"label": "English"
},
{
"key": "fr",
"label": "French"
},
{
"key": "it",
"label": "Italian"
}
]
```
In case no setting is provided, the component shows only the English language.
