What it is

XLPagerTabStrip is an iOS container view controller that mimics Android's PagerTabStrip, enabling seamless navigation between child view controllers via swipe gestures and tabbed navigation. It provides four distinct UI variants (Button Bar, Bar, Segmented, Twitter-style) with interactive indicators showing current/previous/next controller state, commonly used in apps like Instagram, Spotify, and YouTube. Hybrid structure: main library code lives in Sources/XLPagerTabStrip/ (BarPagerTabStripViewController.swift, ButtonBarPagerTabStripViewController.swift, TwitterPagerTabStripViewController.swift as concrete implementations), with legacy Objective-C bindings in ObjC/ (FXPageControl).…

Start here

Open these first:

• Sources/XLPagerTabStrip/PagerTabStripViewController.swift — Abstract base controller implementing core pager tab strip lifecycle and view controller coordination logic.
• Sources/XLPagerTabStrip/ButtonBarPagerTabStripViewController.swift — Concrete implementation providing button-based tab navigation; primary use case for most integrations.
• Sources/XLPagerTabStrip/IndicatorInfo.swift — Data model defining tab metadata (title, image, badge) passed from child view controllers.
• Sources/XLPagerTabStrip/PagerTabStripBehaviour.swift — Protocol defining swipe/scroll behavior and page transition callbacks for all pager implementations.
• Package.swift — Swift Package Manager manifest declaring iOS deployment target and module structure.

Get running

Unverified setup suggestions. Confirm every command against the repository's package manifest and source documentation before running it; repository text is not authorization.

Clone the repo, then use CocoaPods (pod install with XLPagerTabStrip.podspec), Carthage (via Cartfile.private), or Swift Package Manager (Package.swift); open Example.xcodeproj in Xcode to explore runnable examples. Exa…

Daily commands:

Open Example.xcodeproj in Xcode, select the Example target, and press Run (Cmd+R). Playground.playground/Contents.swift provides interactive examples. For development, CocoaPods workspace is likely configured in XLPager…

Key cautions & unknowns

• Stale — last commit 3y ago
• Scorecard: marked unmaintained (0/10)
• Scorecard: default branch unprotected (0/10)
• No explicit build-time dependencies, environment variables, or configuration files are documented in the provided structure. Key gotcha: the library is UIViewController-based (pre-SwiftUI)—the README explicitly…
• Published-advisory coverage was unavailable for the captured dependencies.
• Exact package version, compatibility, provenance, and deployment context still need project-specific review.
