What is a navigation tab?
Navigation tabs provide a clear visual indication of what content can be found on a website and places the current location in context by highlighting it.
What can I use instead of tabs?
If they're too long, then accordions are a better choice rather than tabs! Accordions placed on a horizontal space have too much space to accommodate long options and plenty of data, while on tabs if you choose long names as labels, they will look more or less like accordions only!
What are tabs in UX design?
Tabs are a navigation element used in web design that allow users to easily access different areas of a site or different parts of an individual page. They're sort of like tabbed dividers in a filing cabinet – by clicking a tab, users can easily locate a page containing related content.
