Angular Material - Tabs

The <mat-tab-group>, an Angular Directive, is used to create a tabbed layout.

In this chapter, we will showcase the configuration required to draw a tab control using Angular Material.

Create Angular Application

Follow the following steps to update the Angular application we created in Angular Material - First Application chapter −

app.ts

Following is the content of the modified app.ts.

import { Component, signal } from '@angular/core';
import { FormsModule, ReactiveFormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
import { MatButtonModule } from '@angular/material/button';
import { MatFormFieldModule } from '@angular/material/form-field';
import { MatTabsModule } from '@angular/material/tabs';

@Component({
   selector: 'app-root',
   imports: [
      FormsModule,
      MatFormFieldModule,
      MatTabsModule, 
      MatButtonModule,
      ReactiveFormsModule,
   ],
   templateUrl: './app.html',
   styleUrl: './app.css'
})
export class App {
   protected readonly title = signal('material-app');
}

app.html

Following is the content of the modified HTML host file app.html.
