Tabs Component

Description

The Tabs Component is a React-based tabbed navigation menu that allows users to switch between different content sections. It was developed as part of a task to build a Tabs Component for an application, focusing on code quality, maintainability, reusability, and a clean API design.

Features

  • Renders a tabbed navigation menu and corresponding content sections for each tab.
  • Allows users to switch between tabs by clicking on the tab headers.
  • Supports dynamic content for each tab, enabling changes in content based on user interaction.
  • Implemented using the compound component pattern, providing a modular and reusable structure.
  • Provides a clean and intuitive API for defining tabs and their content.
  • Supports customization of tab styling and behavior, including active tab highlighting.

How to Use

  1. Clone the repository to your local machine.
  2. Navigate to the project directory.
cd tabs-component
  1. Install dependencies using npm or yarn.
npm install

or

yarn install
  1. Run the application.
npm start

or

yarn start
  1. Open your browser and go to http://localhost:3000 to see the Tabs Component in action.

Components

TabsNavigator

The TabsNavigator component is the main component that encapsulates the tabbed navigation functionality. It uses the Tab and TabPanel components as children to define the tabs and their respective content.

Tab

The Tab component represents an individual tab in the navigation menu. It accepts the following props:

  • active (optional): A boolean value indicating if the tab is currently active.
  • onClick (optional): A function to be called when the tab is clicked.
  • children: The content of the tab, typically a text label.

TabPanel

The TabPanel component represents the content section corresponding to an individual tab. It accepts the following prop:

  • children: The content of the tab panel.

Customization

You can customize the appearance of the Tabs Component by modifying the style.css file. The CSS classes defined in this file allow you to adjust the tab header styles, active tab highlighting, and other visual aspects of the component.
