you can create multiple root layouts like this:
https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/routing/route-groups#creating-multiple-root-layouts

.

will i have to add a root layout for every group?

[scenic ridge]

in each layout.js need to be html and body, yes

[pearl fjord]

so there is no way to override just in that folder? like i just wana have the root layout everywhere exept in the dashboard

[scenic ridge]

you can either create multiple root layouts (multiple layouts, that contains html and body) or you have one layout with one html and body and build then route groups to seperate the nested content

so for the 2nd option can i remove the navbar?

If you don’t provide it inside the root layout, yes

You could have a this:

root layout (html, body)
(group1)
layout: with no nav bar
(group2)
layout: with nav bar

Or you can do it like this:

(group1): as root with html,body
layout: with no nav bar
(group2): as root with html,body
layout: with nav bar

Yes, you can't override just in that folder. You can follow @scenic ridge's mentions.
You need to create the groups to manage the multi layouts
