# Tabs (AlpineJS)
_(By [@JuroOravec](https://github.com/JuroOravec) and [@mscheper](https://github.com/mscheper))_
This example defines a tabs component. Tabs are dynamic - to change the currently
opened tab, click on the tab headers.
To get started, use the following example to create a simple container with 2 tabs:
```django
{% component "Tablist" id="my-tablist" name="My Tabs" %}
{% component "Tab" header="Tab 1" %}
This is the content of Tab 1
{% endcomponent %}
{% component "Tab" header="Tab 2" disabled=True %}
This is the content of Tab 2
{% endcomponent %}
{% endcomponent %}
```

## API
The tab component is composed of two parts: `Tablist` and `Tab`. Here's how you can customize them.
### `Tablist` component
The `Tablist` component is the main container for the tabs. It accepts the following arguments:
- **`id`** (optional): A unique ID for the tab list. If not provided, it's generated from the `name`.
- **`name`**: The name of the tab list, used as a WAI-ARIA label for accessibility.
- **`selected_tab`** (optional): The `id` of the tab that should be selected by default.
- **`container_attrs`**, **`tablist_attrs`**, **`tab_attrs`**, **`tabpanel_attrs`** (optional): Dictionaries of HTML attributes to be added to the corresponding elements.
Inside the `Tablist`'s default slot you will define the individual tabs.
### `Tab` component
The `Tab` component defines an individual tab. It MUST be nested inside a `Tablist`. It accepts the following arguments:
- **`header`**: The text to be displayed in the tab's header.
- **`disabled`** (optional): A boolean that disables the tab if `True`.
- **`id`** (optional): A unique ID for the tab. If not provided, it's generated from the header.
Use the `Tab`'s default slot to define the content of the tab.
## Example
To see the component in action, you can set up a view and a URL pattern as shown below.
### `views.py`
This example shows how to render a full page with the tab component.
```djc_py
--8<-- "sampleproject/examples/pages/tabs.py"
```
### `urls.py`
```python
from django.urls import path
from examples.pages.tabs import TabsPage
urlpatterns = [
path("examples/tabs", TabsPage.as_view(), name="tabs"),
]
```
## How it works
At the start of rendering, `Tablist` defines special context that `Tab`s recognize.
When a `Tab` component is nested and rendered inside a `Tablist`, it registers itself with the parent `Tablist` component.
After the rendering of `Tablist`'s body is done, we end up with list of rendered `Tabs` that were encountered.
`Tablist` then uses this information to dynamically render the tab HTML.
## Definition
