Tabs

Use Tabs for parallel alternatives: package managers, programming languages, or OS-specific instructions. Readers pick once and stay in context. Matching tab titles sync across the page. Select "yarn" in one group and every other npm/yarn/pnpm group switches to match.

Use Tabs when:

• Multiple implementations of the same concept exist (npm/yarn/pnpm, JavaScript/Python)
• Parallel options are mutually exclusive (the reader picks one)
• Consistency matters: the reader's choice should persist throughout the page

Usage

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="npm">npm install jamdesk</Tab>
  <Tab title="pnpm">pnpm add jamdesk</Tab>
</Tabs>

Basic Tabs

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="First Tab">

    Content for the first tab.

</Tab>
  <Tab title="Second Tab">

    Content for the second tab.

</Tab>
  <Tab title="Third Tab">

    Content for the third tab.

</Tab>
</Tabs>

Tabs vs CodeGroup vs Accordion

Rule of thumb: Use Tabs when the reader's choice (like preferred package manager) should persist throughout the page. Use CodeGroup for code-only comparisons. Use Accordion for content that can all be relevant.

Tabs with Icons

Add Font Awesome icons to tab titles:

function App() {
  return <h1>Hello React</h1>;
}

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="React" icon="react" iconType="brands">

    ```jsx
    function App() {
      return <h1>Hello React</h1>;
    }
    ```

</Tab>
  <Tab title="Vue" icon="vuejs" iconType="brands">

    ```vue
    <template>
      <h1>Hello Vue</h1>
    </template>
    ```

</Tab>
</Tabs>

Border Bottom

Use the borderBottom prop to add a visual separator below the tab content:

<Tabs borderBottom>
  <Tab title="Overview">

    This tab group has a bottom border for visual separation.

</Tab>
  <Tab title="Details">

    Useful when tabs contain varying content lengths.

</Tab>
</Tabs>

Synchronized Tabs

Tabs with matching titles sync across the page. Click "yarn" in one group and every npm/yarn/pnpm group on the page switches with it:

Install:

npm install my-package

Run:

npm run dev

Synchronization happens when tab titles match (case-insensitive).
