It depends on what you mean. When you say "menus" are you talking about
any possible menu that gets displayed, like menus that pop up when you
click an item on a menu bar, or right-click in an area that has a
context menu? Or are you just talking about the xfce applications menu?
Or the window list menu?
If you're talking about every menu everywhere, they place to go is gtk,
not xfce.
If you want to play around with the applications menu, the display
portion of that is in xfdesktop right now (modules/menu/). The part
that generates the tree is in libxfce4menu, though xfdesktop master will
(hopefully) be ported to use garcon instead.
You can, of course, find all these components on git.xfce.org.
