igx-bottom-nav component is used to organize or switch between similar data sets. It contains igx-bottom-nav-item components. The igx-bottom-nav-item component is a wrapper for igx-bottom-nav-panel and igx-bottom-nav-header components that will represent respectively the container for the data and the tab header.

<igx-bottom-nav>
    <igx-bottom-nav-item>
        <igx-bottom-nav-header label="Tab 1"></igx-bottom-nav-header>
        <igx-bottom-nav-panel>
            <h1>Tab 1 Content</h1>
            <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.</p>
        </igx-bottom-nav-panel>
    <igx-bottom-nav-item>
    <igx-bottom-nav-item>
        <igx-bottom-nav-header label="Tab 2"></igx-bottom-nav-header>
        <igx-bottom-nav-panel>
            <h1>Tab 2 Content</h1>
    	    <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...</p>
        </igx-bottom-nav-panel>
    <igx-bottom-nav-item>
</igx-bottom-nav>

Objectives

igx-bottom-nav should follow the mobile-first approach and should be suitable for hybrid applications.

End-to-end user experience prototype

Acceptance criteria

Must-have before we can consider the feature a sprint candidate

  1. The bottom-nav should calculate its layout only by itself.
  1. The developer should be able to determines whether the tab is disabled.
  2. The developer should be able to customize the tab by icon and label.
  3. The developer should be able to set random HTML content in a panel.
  4. The end user should be able to select a tab/panel.
  5. The tabs and respective panels should synchronize their states: selected/disabled.
  6. Updates in panels should be indicated on the respective tab as a badge.

Elaborate more on the multi-facetted use cases

Developer stories:

As a developer I want to:

  • Story 1: As a developer, I want to add multiple (2-5) tabs/panels in the bottom-nav
  • Story 2: As a developer, I want to identify each tab with:
    • Label. The label should fit on a single line. If the text is longer than it wraps to a second line before it’s truncated.
    • Icon
    • Label and icon (label is one line only)
  • Story 3: As a developer, I want to have the option to set the currently selected tab item through code.
  • Story 4: As a developer, I want to have the option to enable animation of the transition of the panels.

End-user stories:

  • Story 1: As an end-user, I want to navigate between the tabs upon tap/click gesture.
  • Story 2: As an end-user, I want to track the state of the tab/panel - whether it is selected or updated.
  • Story 3: As an end-user, I want to be notified upon tab updates with a badge component.

Describe behavior, design, look and feel of the implemented feature. Always include visual mock-up

3.1. End-User Experience

3.2. Developer Experience

  • It should be able to add multiple (2-5) tabs.
  • Layout - each tab's width equals the available width divided by the number of Tabs applied. Developers can define 2 to 5 Tabs. The bottom-nav should calculate the dimensions by itself.
  • Synchronization - It should be able to define states of the tabs:
    • selected / deselected,
    • enabled / disabled,
    • updated / not updated.
  • Bottom-nav should provided its current selected tab and its index.
  • Badge placed into tab should display the counter of the changes, happened in relative panel.
  • The component should be hidden/shown as the main content is scrolled.
  • As a developer I want to automatically scroll to the top of the content on tap on a selected Tab.

3.3. Globalization/Localization

Describe any special localization requirements such as the number of localizable strings, regional formats
