Tabs

CodeHarborHub (built on Docusaurus) provides the <Tabs> component that you can use directly inside Markdown files thanks to MDX.

Here’s a basic example:

import Tabs from '@theme/Tabs';
import TabItem from '@theme/TabItem';

<Tabs>
  <TabItem value="html" label="HTML" default>
    HTML content goes here.
  </TabItem>
  <TabItem value="css" label="CSS">
    CSS content goes here.
  </TabItem>
  <TabItem value="js" label="JavaScript">
    JavaScript content goes here.
  </TabItem>
</Tabs>
http://localhost:3000
HTML content goes here.

Using values & defaultValue​

You can provide a values array and a defaultValue to simplify tab definitions:

<Tabs
  defaultValue="html"
  values={[
    {label: 'HTML', value: 'html'},
    {label: 'CSS', value: 'css'},
    {label: 'JavaScript', value: 'js'},
  ]}>
  <TabItem value="html">HTML content goes here.</TabItem>
  <TabItem value="css">CSS content goes here.</TabItem>
  <TabItem value="js">JavaScript content goes here.</TabItem>
</Tabs>
http://localhost:3000
HTML content goes here.

Syncing Tab Choices​

To synchronize multiple tab groups (e.g., Beginner / Advanced), use the same groupId. Changing one tab updates all groups with the same ID, and the choice is stored in localStorage:

<Tabs groupId="skill-level">
  <TabItem value="beginner" label="Beginner">Basic code setup</TabItem>
  <TabItem value="advanced" label="Advanced">Advanced optimizations</TabItem>
</Tabs>

<Tabs groupId="skill-level">
  <TabItem value="beginner" label="Beginner">Intro resources</TabItem>
  <TabItem value="advanced" label="Advanced">Performance tips</TabItem>
</Tabs>
http://localhost:3000
Basic code setup
Intro resources

Lazy Rendering​

By default, all tab contents are rendered at build time. To render only the active tab (improves performance on large pages), add the lazy prop:

<Tabs lazy>
  <TabItem value="html" label="HTML">Rendered only when active.</TabItem>
  <TabItem value="css" label="CSS">Rendered only when active.</TabItem>
</Tabs>

Styling Tabs​

You can add a className prop to customize tab styles:

<Tabs className="custom-tabs">
  <TabItem value="html">HTML</TabItem>
  <TabItem value="css">CSS</TabItem>
</Tabs>

Then define your styles in a module:

markdown-features-tabs-styles.module.css
.custom-tabs :global(.tabs__item) {
  color: #25c2a0;
}
.custom-tabs :global(.tabs__item[aria-selected='true']) {
  border-bottom: 2px solid #25c2a0;
}

Query String Support​

Persist tab selections in the URL so you can share a direct link to a page with a specific tab preselected.

<Tabs queryString="topic">
  <TabItem value="frontend" label="Frontend">Frontend Docs</TabItem>
  <TabItem value="backend" label="Backend">Backend Docs</TabItem>
</Tabs>

When a tab is selected, the URL updates to:

?topic=frontend
info

You can also combine with groupId for persistent syncing:

For convenience, when the queryString prop is true, the groupId value will be used as a fallback.

<Tabs groupId="topic" queryString>
  <TabItem value="frontend" label="Frontend">Frontend Docs</TabItem>
  <TabItem value="backend" label="Backend">Backend Docs</TabItem>
</Tabs>
http://localhost:3000
Frontend Docs

When the page loads, the tab query string choice will be restored in priority over the groupId choice (using localStorage).
