SwiftUIMaterialTabs

GitHub Release iOS 17.0+ Xcode 15.0+ Swift 5.9+ GitHub License

Overview

SwiftUIMaterialTabs is a pure SwiftUI Material 3-style tabs and Sticky Header library rolled into one! It supports both Primary and Secondary tab styles as well as custom tabs. Easily apply sticky header effects like fade, shrink, and parallax or create your own unique effects. If you don't need tabs, Sticky Headers work fine without them because every app needs a cool sticky header!

Material Tabs Sticky Headers

Installation

SwiftUIMaterialTabs is installed through Swift Package Manager. In Xcode, navigate to File | Add Package Dependency..., paste the URL of this repository in the search field, and click "Add Package".

In your source file, import MaterialTabs to access the library.

The main components you'll use will depend on the use case: Material Tabs or Sticky Headers. The APIs are almost identical, with the main difference being that Material Tabs components have an extra Tab generic parameter and MaterialTabs requires an additional view builder for the tab bar.

Purpose Material Tabs Sticky Headers
The top-level container component. MaterialTabs StickyHeader
Scroll view wrapper required for sticky header effects. MaterialTabsScroll StickyHeaderScroll
The context passed to header view builders for calculating sticky header effects. MaterialTabsContext StickyHeaderContext
The context passed to scroll view builders with useful metrics, such as the safe content height under the header. MaterialTabsScrollContext StickyHeaderScrollContext
The tab bar. MaterialTabBar n/a

These and additional coponents are covered in the Material Tabs and Sticky Headers sections (jump to Sticky Headers).

Material Tabs

The basic usage is as follows:

struct BasicTabView: View {

    // Tabs are identified by some `Hashable` type.
    enum Tab: Hashable {
        case first
        case second
    }

    // The selected tab state variable is owned by your view.
    @State var selectedTab: Tab = .first

    var body: some View {
        // The main conainer view.
        MaterialTabs(
            // A binding to the currently selected tab.
            selectedTab: $selectedTab,
            // A view builder for the header title that takes a `MaterialTabsContext`. This can be anything.
            headerTitle: { context in
                Text("Header Title")
                    .padding()
            },
            // A view builder for the tab bar that takes a `MaterialTabsContext`.
            headerTabBar: { context in
                // Use the `MaterialTabBar` or provide your own implementation.
                MaterialTabBar(selectedTab: $selectedTab, sizing: .equalWidth, context: context)
            },
            headerBackground: { context in
                // The background can be anything, but is typically a `Color`, `Gradient` or scalable `Image`.
                // The background spans the entire header and top safe area.
                Color.yellow
            },
            // The tab contents.
            content: {
                Text("First Tab Content")
                    // Identify tabs using the `.materialTabItem()` view modifier.
                    .materialTabItem(
                        tab: Tab.first,
                        // Using Material 3 primary tab style.
                        label: .primary("First", icon: Image(systemName: "car"))
                    )
                Text("Second Tab Content")
                    .materialTabItem(
                        tab: Tab.second,
                        label: .primary("Second", icon: Image(systemName: "sailboat"))
                    )
            }
        )
    }
}

MaterialTabBar

MaterialTabBar is a horizontally scrolling tab bar that supports Material 3 primary and secondary tab styles or custom tab selectors. You specify the tab selector labels by applying the materialTabItem(tab:label:) view modifier to your top-level tab contents.

MaterialTabBar has two options for hoziontal sizing: .equalWidth and .proportionalWidth.

MaterialTabBar(selectedTab: $selectedTab, sizing: .equalWidth, context: context)
MaterialTabBar(selectedTab: $selectedTab, sizing: .proportionalWidth, context: context)

With .equalWidth, all tabs will be the width of the largest tab selector. With .proportional, tabs will be sized horizontally to fit. In either case, selector labels will expand to fill the available width of the tab bar. If there isn't enough space, the tab bar scrolls.

MaterialTabItemModifier

The MaterialTabItemModifier view modifier is used to identify and configure tabs for the tab bar. It is conceptually similar to a combination of the tag() and tagitem() view modifiers used with a standard TabView

There are two built-in selector labels: PrimaryTab and SecondaryTab. You don't typically create these directly, but specify them when applying .materialTabItem() to your tab contents:

Text("First Tab Content")
    .materialTabItem(
        tab: Tab.first,
        label: .primary("First", icon: Image(systemName: "car"))
    )

Both styles are highly customizable through the optional config and deselectedConfig parameters:

Text("Second Tab Content")
    .materialTabItem(
        tab: Tab.first,
        label: .secondary("First", config: customLabelConfig, deselectedConfig: custonDeselectedLabelConfig)
    )

You may also supply your own custom selector label:

Text("Second Tab Content")
    .materialTabItem(
        tab: Tab.first,
        label: { tab, context, tapped in
            Text(tab.description)
                .foregroundColor(tab == context.selectedTab ? .blue : .black)
                .onTapGesture(perform: tapped)
        }
    )

MaterialTabsScroll

Scrollable tab content must be contained within a MaterialTabsScroll, a lightweight wrapper around ScrollView required to enable sticky header effects. Typically, you supply the content in a VStack or LazyVStack.

content: {
    MaterialTabsScroll(tab: Tab.first) { _ in
        LazyVStack {
            ForEach(0..<10) { index in
                Text("Row \(index)
                    .padding()
            }
        }
    }
    .materialTabItem(tab: Tab.first, label: .secondary("First"))
}

When this component is used, Material Tabs automatically maintains consistency of scroll position across tabs as the header is collapsed and expanded.

Joint manipulation of the scroll position is supported if you need it. You supply scrollItem and scrollUnitPoint bindings and MaterialTabsScroll applies the scrollPosition() modifier internally. You are free to set the scrollTargetLayout() view modifier in your content where appropriate.

@State var scrollItem: Int?
@State var scrollUnitPoint: UnitPoint = .top

...

content: {
    MaterialTabsScroll(tab: Tab.first, reservedItem: -1, scrollItem: $scrollItem, scrollUnitPoint: $scrollUnitPoint) { _ in
        LazyVStack(spacing: 0) {
            ForEach(0..<10) { index in
                Text("Row \(index)")
                    .padding()
            }
        }
        .scrollTargetLayout()
    }
    .materialTabItem(tab: Tab.first, label: .secondary("First"))
}

One nuance of the scrollPosition() view modifier is that, if you need to precisely manipulate the scroll position, you must know the height of the view being scrolled. Therefore, in order for Material Tabs to achieve precise control, you are required to supply a reservedItem identifier that Material Tabs will use to embed its own hidden view in the scroll. We couldn't think of another way to do this while staying "pure SwiftUI".

It is worth noting here, because it is not completely obvious, that the formula for calculating the a unit point for scrollPosition() seems to be:

unitPoint = (desiredContentOffset) / (scrollViewHeight - verticalSafeArea - verticalContentPadding - viewHeight)

It should be noted that MaterialTabsScroll inserts a spacer into the scroll to push your content below the header.

Sticky Headers

The sticky header effects covered in this section are equally applicable to MaterialTabs and StickyHeaders.

The basic usage is the same as MaterialTabs without the tab bar:

struct BasicStickyHeaderView: View {

    var body: some View {
        // The main conainer view.
        StickyHeader(
            // A view builder for the header title that takes a `StickyHeaderContext`. This can be anything.
            headerTitle: { context in
                Text("Header Title")
                    .padding()
            },
            headerBackground: { context in
                // The background can be anything, but is typically a `Color`, `Gradient` or scalable `Image`.
                // The background spans the entire header and top safe area.
                Color.yellow
            },
            // The tab contents.
            content: {
                StickyHeaderScroll() { _ in
                    LazyVStack(spacing: 0) {
                        ForEach(0..<10) { index in
                            Text("Row \(index)")
                                .padding()
                        }
                    }
                    .scrollTargetLayout()
                }
            }
        )
    }
}

StickyHeaderScroll

StickyHeaderScroll is completely analogous to MaterialTabsScroll.

HeaderStyleModifier

The HeaderStyleModifier view modifier works with the HeaderStyle protocol to implement sticky header scroll effects, such as fade, shrink and parallax. You may apply different headerStyle(context:) to modifiers to different header elements or apply multiple styles to a single element to achieve unique effects.

To have the title fade out as it scrolls off screen:

Text("Header Title")
    .padding()
    .headerStyle(OffsetHeaderStyle(fade: true), context: context)

To have the title shrink and fade out:

Text("Header Title")
    .padding()
    .headerStyle(ShrinkHeaderStyle(), context: context)

To apply parallax to a background image:

Image(.coolBackground)
    .resizable()
    .aspectRatio(contentMode: .fill)
    .headerStyle(ParallaxHeaderStyle(), context: context)

Under the hood, these styles are using parameters provided in the StickyHeaderHeaderContext/MaterialTabsHeaderContext to adjust .scaleEffect(), .offset(), and .opacity(). You may implement your own styles by adopting HeaderStyle or manipulate your header views directly.

MinTitleHeightModifier

The MinTitleHeightModifier view modifier can be used to inform the library what the minimum collapsed height of the title view should be. By default, the title view scrolls entirely out of the safe area. However, if you apply .minTitleHeight(), whatever amount you specify will stick to the top of the safe area.

To make a bottom title element stick at the top:

VStack() {
    Text("Top Title Element").
        .padding()
    Text("Bottom Title Element")
        .padding()
        .minTitleHeight(.content())
}

The use of the .content() option causes the library to measure the height of the receiving view and use that height as the minimum.

The FixedHeaderStyle header style can be used to make a top title element stick:

VStack() {
    Text("Top Title Element").
        .padding()
        .headerStyle(
            ShrinkHeaderStyle(
                fade: false,
                minimumScale: 0.5,
                offsetFactor: 0,
                anchor: .top
            ),
            context: context
        )
        .headerStyle(FixedHeaderStyle(), context: context)
        .minTitleHeight(.content(scale: 0.5))
    Text("Bottom Title Element")
        .padding()
}

In this case, we've created a shrinking top title element, reducing the scale to 0.5. This scale factor is also provided to .minTitleHeight() so that it uses the height of the scaled down element.
