This package provides styling for tab components.

Installation

npm install @zendeskgarden/css-tabs

Usage

Once installed, tabs CSS can be accessed via postcss-import.

@import '@zendeskgarden/css-tabs';

Tab CSS classes are intended to support the following component structure.

<nav class="c-tab">
  <ul class="c-tab__list" role="tablist">
    <li
      aria-controls="panel1"
      aria-expanded="true"
      aria-selected="true"
      class="c-tab__list__item is-selected"
      id="tab1"
      role="tab"
      tabindex="0"
    >
      One
    </li>
    <li
      aria-controls="panel2"
      aria-expanded="false"
      aria-selected="false"
      class="c-tab__list__item"
      id="tab2"
      role="tab"
      tabindex="-1"
    >
      Two
    </li>
  </ul>
  <div aria-hidden="false" aria-labelledby="tab1" class="c-tab__panel" id="panel1" role="tabpanel">
    PANEL ONE
  </div>
  <div
    aria-hidden="true"
    aria-labelledby="tab2"
    class="c-tab__panel"
    id="panel2"
    role="tabpanel"
    style="display: none;"
  >
    PANEL TWO
  </div>
</nav>

Accessibility

The sample HTML incorporates aria-* and role attributes expected by assistive technology. The use of tabindex supports keyboard navigation.

Modifications

The same structure can be styled vertically via the following:

<nav class="c-tab c-tab--block">
  ...
</nav>

HTML for anchored tabs should be structured like this:

<li
  aria-controls="panel1"
  aria-expanded="true"
  aria-labelledby="anchor1"
  aria-selected="true"
  class="c-tab__list__item is-selected"
  id="tab1"
  role="tab"
>
  <a href="#" id="anchor1" role="presentation" tabindex="-1">One</a>
</li>

See http://zendeskgarden.github.io/css-components/tabs/ for additional tab component modification classes.

Behavior

See the <Tabs> component for intended mouse and keyboard (tab-to; cursor-through) behavior.
