st.tabs() in Streamlit

The st.tabs() method in Streamlit creates a tabbed interface that lets users switch between multiple content sections within the same page.

It is ideal for dashboards, multi-step workflows, and separating different views such as data, charts, predictions, and settings.

Basic Syntax

import streamlit as st

tabs = st.tabs(tab_names)    

Parameters

• tab_names: List of strings representing tab titles. A tab is created for each string. The first tab is selected by default.

Returns

• A list of tab containers where you can write content.

Example: Simple tabs example.

Python

# Importing the Streamlit library
import streamlit as st

st.title("Streamlit Tabs Example")

tab1, tab2 = st.tabs(["Overview", "Details"])

with tab1:
    st.write("This is the overview section.")

with tab2:
    st.write("This is the details section.")    

✔ What happens:

• Two tabs appear at the top.
• Clicking a tab switches the content.
