📖 Usage

Sidebar

The CupertinoSidebar works very similar to Flutter's NavigationDrawer. It accepts a list of destinations, a selected index, and a callback function triggered when a destination is tapped.

CupertinoSidebar(
  selectedIndex: _selectedIndex,
  onDestinationSelected: (value) {
    setState(() {
      // Update the selected index when a destination is selected.
      _selectedIndex = value;
    });
  },
  children: [
    // index 0
    SidebarDestination(
      icon: Icon(CupertinoIcons.home),
      label: Text('Home'),
    ),
    // index 1
    SidebarDestination(
      icon: Icon(CupertinoIcons.person),
      label: Text('Items'),
    ),
    // index 2
    SidebarDestination(
      icon: Icon(CupertinoIcons.search),
      label: Text('Search'),
    ),
  ],
);

CupertinoSidebar also supports expandable sections, allowing you to group destinations.

...
children: [
    ...
   SidebarSection(
      label: Text('My section'),
      children: [
        SidebarDestination(
          icon: Icon(CupertinoIcons.settings),
          label: Text('Settings'),
        ),
        ...
      ],
    ),
]

Floating Tab Bar

The CupertinoFloatingTabBar is managed by a TabController, with options to add tabs and specify a callback function.

CupertinoFloatingTabBar(
  onDestinationSelected: (value) {},
  controller: _myTabController,
  tabs: const [
    CupertinoFloatingTab(
      child: Text('Today'),
    ),
    CupertinoFloatingTab(
      child: Text('Library'),
    ),
    CupertinoFloatingTab.icon(
      icon: Icon(CupertinoIcons.search),
    ),
  ],
)

For a full example, see the Tab Bar example.
