Overview

The tabs component organizes and displays multiple related but independent data views or analysis topics in a limited space. Content layering via tab switching keeps information structured while saving page real estate. Common use cases:
  • Multi-dimensional comparison: analyze and cross-compare a core metric (e.g., sales) across different dimensions (product, region, time period).
  • Multi-view display: in one dashboard, customize dedicated views for different business teams or roles (executives, ops, marketing).
  • Content navigation and organization: in dashboard apps or kiosks, separate complex modules with tabs — “Overview”, “Trends”, “Detail” — so users can locate info fast.
