Getting Started

After installing MinimalTabBar, you can start using it in your iOS project. Here’s what you need to do:

  1. Import the MinimalTabBar framework:


    2. import MinimalTabBar

  2. Create an instance of `MinimalTabBarController`:


    3. let tabBarController = MinimalTabBarController()

  3. Set the view controllers for each tab item:


    4. tabBarController.viewControllers = [viewController1, viewController2, viewController3]

  4. Customize the appearance of the tab bar (optional):


    5. tabBarController.tabBar.tintColor = UIColor.blue
    tabBarController.tabBar.unselectedItemTintColor = UIColor.gray

  5. Set the tab bar controller as the root view controller of your app:


    6. window?.rootViewController = tabBarController
    window?.makeKeyAndVisible()

Customization

MinimalTabBar provides several customization options to suit your app’s design. Here are some of the key properties you can modify:

Tab bar color

You can change the color of the tab bar by modifying the `tintColor` property of the `MinimalTabBarController` instance:


tabBarController.tabBar.tintColor = UIColor.blue

Tab item color

The color of unselected tab items can be changed by modifying the `unselectedItemTintColor` property of the `MinimalTabBarController` instance:


tabBarController.tabBar.unselectedItemTintColor = UIColor.gray

Tab item title

You can customize the title of each tab item by providing a `title` property for each view controller:


viewController1.title = "Home"
viewController2.title = "Profile"
viewController3.title = "Settings"
