Accessibility
- Use
role="tablist",role="tab", androle="tabpanel" - Connect tabs to panels with
aria-controlsandaria-labelledby - Support Arrow, Home, and End key navigation
- Use
aria-selectedto indicate active tab
UX Guidelines
- Keep tab labels short and descriptive (1-2 words)
- Limit to 5-7 tabs maximum for usability
- Show active tab clearly with color and/or indicator
- Consider vertical tabs for many items or long labels
Performance
- Lazy load tab content for heavy panels
- Use CSS animations over JavaScript when possible
- Consider prefetching adjacent tab content
- Debounce rapid tab switches if loading data
Responsive Design
- Switch to vertical layout on narrow screens
- Consider dropdown or scrollable tabs on mobile
- Use icons to save space when needed
- Test touch targets are at least 44x44px
