Connect your library with MCPui/tabsUsage
Get this component from a saved library export or the connected CLI. The imports below refer to local files installed in your app.
Import styles/components.css, then styles/theme.css once. Wrap your app in ThemeScope from components/ui/utils so typography, focus and overlays share the theme. The installation guide covers runtime dependencies and React/Next.js setup.
import { Tabs } from './components/ui/tabs';
<Tabs label="Account" items={[{value:"profile",label:"Profile",content:"Your profile settings."},{value:"notifications",label:"Notifications",content:"Choose how you stay informed."}]}/>Design system
This component consumes your semantic colors, spacing, typography and shape tokens. Import the compiled styles and your theme once as described in Export.
