Variants

MDC Tab Bar does not have any variants; however, its subcomponents do. See the Tab Scroller, Tab, and Tab Indicator documentation for more information.

Tab Icons

We recommend using Material Icons from Google Fonts:

  <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/icon?family=Material+Icons">
</head>

However, you can also use SVG, Font Awesome, or any other icon library you wish.
