FAQ

What to expect in the next stable release?

• Ionic 4+ support
• Framework agnostic with Angular wrappers
• Styling with CSS variables
• Dynamic data support (e.g: *ngFor="let tab of tabs")
• Custom content support. A super-tab is no longer a wrapper for ion-nav!
• Improved performance

When will the next version be ready?

You can start using the new super tabs version, but it is currently still in beta. A stable release is expected to be released by April 12, 2019. Until then, any beta/rc versions might have breaking changes that will not be documented in any change log.

What will the new syntax look like?

<!-- 
  # Only global inputs/outputs will be passed through the super-tabs component
  # The rest of the i/o is split throughout the components to make usage more 
  # intuitive and customizable.
 -->
<super-tabs [config]="config" (tabChange)="onTabChange($event)">
  <super-tabs-container>
    <super-tab>
      <!-- You can pass anything to a super tab including an ion-nav -->
      <!-- If you choose to pass an ion-nav, it will be controlled and optimized by super-tab -->
      <ion-nav [root]="myPage" [rootParams]="myParams"></ion-nav>
    </super-tab>
    <super-tab>...</super-tab>
    <super-tab>...</super-tab>
    <!-- ability to dynamically add or remove tabs -->
    <super-tab *ngFor="let tab of tabs">...</super-tab>
  </super-tabs-container>
  
  <super-tabs-toolbar>
    <!-- Listen to click events on any tab button -->
    <super-tab-button (click)="onTabClick($event)">
      <ion-label>Call</ion-label>
      <ion-icon name="call"></ion-icon>
