TabPanel Edit
TabPanel is a React component to render an ARIA-compliant TabPanel.
TabPanels organize content across different screens, data sets, and interactions. It has two sections: a list of tabs, and the view to show when tabs are chosen.

Usage Usage
TabPanels organize and allow navigation between groups of content that are related and at the same level of hierarchy.
Tabs in a set Tabs in a set
As a set, all tabs are unified by a shared topic. For clarity, each tab should contain content that is distinct from all the other tabs in a set.
Anatomy Anatomy
- Container
- Active text label
- Active tab indicator
- Inactive text label
- Tab item
Labels Labels
Tab labels appear in a single row, in the same typeface and size. Use text labels that clearly and succinctly describe the content of a tab, and make sure that a set of tabs contains a cohesive group of items that share a common characteristic.
Tab labels can wrap to a second line, but do not add a second row of tabs.
Active tab indicators Active tab indicators
To differentiate an active tab from an inactive tab, apply an underline and color change to the active tab’s text and icon.
Behavior Behavior
Users can navigate between tabs by tapping the tab key on the keyboard.
Placement Placement
Place tabs above content. Tabs control the UI region displayed below them.
