Description
Problem to solve
In current version, Mini variant of navigation drawer has only icon where in some cases it is hard to interpret its representation.
Proposed solution
Displaying helper text underneath the icon will solve this problem.
We can use tooltips to solve this problem but Helper texts are more elegant.
