Content

TabList follows the Collection Components API, accepting both static and dynamic collections. This example shows a dynamic collection, passing a list of objects to the items prop, and a function to render the children.

Tab 1
Tab 2
Tab 3
import {ActionButton, ActionButtonGroup, Tabs, TabList, Tab, TabPanel, Collection} from '@react-spectrum/s2';
import {style} from '@react-spectrum/s2/style' with {type: 'macro'};
import {useState} from 'react';

function Example() {
  let [tabs, setTabs] = useState([
    {id: 1, title: 'Tab 1', content: 'Tab body 1'},
    {id: 2, title: 'Tab 2', content: 'Tab body 2'},
    {id: 3, title: 'Tab 3', content: 'Tab body 3'}
  ]);

  let addTab = () => {
    setTabs(tabs => [
      ...tabs,
      {
        id: tabs.length + 1,
        title: `Tab ${tabs.length + 1}`,
        content: `Tab body ${tabs.length + 1}`
      }
    ]);
  };

  let removeTab = () => {
    if (tabs.length > 1) {
      setTabs(tabs => tabs.slice(0, -1));
    }
  };

  return (
    <Tabs aria-label="Tabs" styles={style({width: 'full'})}>
      <div className={style({display: 'flex', alignItems: 'center'})}>
        <TabList
          items={tabs}
          styles={style({flexShrink: 1, flexGrow: 1, flexBasis: 'auto'})}>
          {item => <Tab>{item.title}</Tab>}
        </TabList>
        <ActionButtonGroup density="compact" size="S">
          <ActionButton onPress={addTab}>Add tab</ActionButton>
          <ActionButton onPress={removeTab}>Remove tab</ActionButton>
        </ActionButtonGroup>
      </div>
      <Collection items={tabs}>
        {item => <TabPanel>{item.content}</TabPanel>}
      </Collection>
    </Tabs>
  )
}

Icons

Tag supports icons and text as children. Text is always required, but can be hidden when the tabs are expanded using the labelBehavior prop.

Selection

Use the defaultSelectedKey or selectedKey prop to set the selected tab. The selected key corresponds to the id prop of a <Tab>. Tabs can be disabled with the isDisabled prop. See the selection guide for more details.
