That was the missing piece on the React Native ecosystem, nice to see it working
Don't you need a new weather widget?
damn that's smooth
Now the only missing part: Web support
As mentioned in another comment: On web you should use `@react-navigation/bottom-tabs` this can be done conditionally using .web.tsx extensions. I will make sure to add examples of this in the docs.
LFG
What’s the difference between this and expo tab(expo-router/ui) ?
You can read more about the differences here:
Awesome work ! Now I don't see any reason why not making the default for Expo Router.
Fantastic!
Can this be used in tandem with expo router, ie expo router’s components for everything else, then this for a bottom navigator
![CSS Trick 🤙 You can create these tab bar controls by using :has() to count the number of tabs ⭐️ .tabs:has(input:nth-of-type(3)){--count: 3;} .tabs:has(:checked:nth-of-type(3)){--active: 200%;} .tabs::after{ translate:var(--active) 0;} Let's break it down in this ! 📼 Couple of CSS :has() tricks here combined with custom properties 😎 First things first, lay out the tabs using display: grid. This gives you a way to create equal-width tabs 🙏 .tabs { display: grid; grid-auto-flow: column; } Then you use :has() to count the number of tabs and store that in a custom property 🤓 .tabs:has(input:nth-of-type(3)) { --count: 3; } .tabs:has(input:nth-of-type(4)) { --count: 4; } Using the cascade, the last valid :has() gives you the number of tabs 🫶 Using the tab count, you can size the tab indicator. For the tab indicator, use the tabs pseudoelement: .tabs::after { content: ""; position: absolute; height: 100%; width: calc(100% / var(--count)); } See how you can use --count to determine its size 📏 Next, use :has() to determine which tab is active or :checked with input [type=radio] .tabs:has(:checked:nth-of-type(2)) { --active: 1; } .tabs:has(:checked:nth-of-type(3)) { --active: 2; } You can use a zero-indexed translation here. If the second input is :checked, set --active: 1, then translate the pseudoelement on the tabs to that position 👉 .tabs::after { translate: calc(var(--active, 0) * 100%) 0; } Or you could set active to the translation: .tabs:has(:checked:nth-of-type(2)) { --active: 100%; } Setting the custom property allows you to use the index elsewhere if you need it 🤙 The final piece is using mix-blend-mode 👀 The tabs have a black background-color, the pseudoelement is white, and the label text is white. When you use mix-blend-mode: difference on the pseudoelement it will give this effect that the text transitions from white to black sliding across 😎 .tabs::after { color: hsl(0 0% 100%); mix-blend-mode: difference; } You can totally mix up the colors here though and go with a different effect. The mechanics of how you can use CSS :has() is the main point here 🙏 As always, any questions, suggestions, etc. let me know CodePen.IO link below! 👇 (There's even a Tailwind CSS play for this one too 👀)](https://image.24vids.com/tw-1750370338041647245/ext_tw_video_thumb/1750367384505081856/pu/img/ZVW6XE5SU4mBEB5M.jpg)
