Use cases

Switching between Login and Registration

Discussion tabs: Switching between key actions within Discussions

Non-use cases

Not a use case - for discussion to review as a distinct nav pattern: Course Dashboard tabs: Switching between Courses, Programs and Discover New

Not a use case - for discussion to review as a distinct nav pattern: In-course tabs: Navigating between Course Home, Dates, and any other tab

Best Practices

Mobile

We should consider the mobile experience for the tabs component. If there are only 2 tabs, we shouldn’t collapse the tab options on small screen sizes.

If there are more than 2 tabs, we should consider consolidating into either an accordion menu, dropdown menu, horizontal scrolling (least preferred).

Nesting

We should have some perspective on nesting a tab component. In the Discussion example above, the Course tabs themselves would be a tab component, but so would “My Posts” “All posts” and “Topics”. Do we need to consider 2 styles for tabs for when they are nested to indicate priority?
