@react-navigation/material-top-tabs

React Navigation integration for animated tab view component from react-native-tab-view.

Installation

Open a Terminal in your project's folder and run,

yarn add @react-navigation/core @react-navigation/material-top-tabs react-native-tab-view

Now we need to install react-native-gesture-handler and react-native-reanimated.

If you are using Expo, to ensure that you get the compatible versions of the libraries, run:

expo install react-native-gesture-handler react-native-reanimated

If you are not using Expo, run the following:

yarn add react-native-reanimated react-native-gesture-handler

If you are using Expo, you are done. Otherwise, continue to the next steps.

Next, we need to link these libraries. The steps depends on your React Native version:

• React Native 0.60 and higher

  On newer versions of React Native, linking is automatic.

  To complete the linking on iOS, make sure you have Cocoapods installed. Then run:

  cd ios
  pod install
  cd ..
  

• React Native 0.59

  If you're on an older React Native version, you need to manually link the dependencies. To do that, run:

  react-native link react-native-reanimated
  react-native link react-native-gesture-handler
  

IMPORTANT: There are additional steps required for react-native-gesture-handler on Android after linking (for all React Native versions). Check the this guide to complete the installation.
