Top React Native tab navigation components
Blog post from LogRocket
Tabs are essential for guiding users through mobile applications, and in React Native, several libraries can facilitate their integration, such as React Navigation, which is widely recommended for its ease of use and extensibility. While React Navigation is the most popular and offers extensive library support, other options like react-native-router-flux and react-native-navigation are available. The Bottom Tabs Navigator provides a simple and customizable tabbed navigation, whereas the Material Bottom Tabs Navigator aligns with Material Design but offers limited styling options. For a top-positioned alternative, the Material Top Tabs Navigator integrates with react-native-tab-view, suitable for submenus within Material-themed apps. More advanced options include React Native MultiBar, which offers popout actions and a complex API, and React Native Animated TabBar, which provides built-in animations and integrates well with React Navigation, offering a visually appealing solution. These libraries provide a range of choices for integrating tabbed navigation into React Native applications, catering to varying needs for customization and design.
