Here is a simple animated tab bar made using HTML, CSS & JavaScript. Made originally by abxlfazl khxrshidi.
The codes are separated in three parts, so copy all three parts combine them and after that run the code. You can use three separate files for HTML, CSS & Js or you can just use one index.html file.
