Bottom Navigation
The Bottom Bavigation bar allows movement between primary destinations in an app.
Bottom navigation bars display three to five destinations at the bottom of a screen. Each destination is represented by an icon and an optional text label. When a bottom navigation icon is tapped, the user is taken to the top-level navigation destination associated with that icon.
Bottom navigation
When there are only three actions, display both icons and text labels at all times.
<BottomNavigation
showLabels
value={value}
onChange={(event, newValue) => {
setValue(newValue);
}}
>
<BottomNavigationAction label="Recents" icon={<RestoreIcon />} />
<BottomNavigationAction label="Favorites" icon={<FavoriteIcon />} />
<BottomNavigationAction label="Nearby" icon={<LocationOnIcon />} />
</BottomNavigation>
Bottom navigation with no label
If there are four or five actions, display inactive views as icons only.
Fixed positioning
This demo keeps bottom navigation fixed to the bottom, no matter the amount of content on-screen.
Third-party routing library
One frequent use case is to perform navigation on the client only, without an HTTP round-trip to the server.
The BottomNavigationAction
component provides the component
prop to handle this use case.
Here is a more detailed guide.
