In real-world development, we may encounter the situation that customizing the UITabBar. For instance: change font style, add animation, use bigger item. However it's hard to do with UITabBarItem. **With ESTabBarController, You can easily achieve these！** -| Feature |Description -------------|-------------|------------- 1| Default style | You can get system-like style by initializing the TabBar with ESTabBarController directly.

UITabBarController style:

ESTabBarController default style:

Compatible with UITabBarController's `selectedIndex`:

First :

├── UITabBarController

└──── UINavigationController

└────── UIViewController

└──────── SubviewControllers

Second :

├── UINavigationController

└──── UITabBarController

└────── UIViewController

└──────── SubviewControllers

In the first case, need to set `hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = true` when pushing subViews. The second is not.

In ESTabBarController, add Container views to UITabBar to be compatible with these two ways。 6| Customizable style | With ESTabBarController, you can：

1. Customize selected item's color and style:

6. And much more ...

7| Customizable item's size

Customizable click event | You can easily customize item's size using ESTabBarController.

**When the button's frame is larger than TabBar, through the use of HitTest to achieve making outer TabBar area click valid.**

In addition, ESTabBarController can customize click event, and through a block to callback super-layer to handle.

With big item in the middle of TabBar:

The Containers' layout is purely based on code，using Autolayout will be better. 2. When there is "More", if edit it will occurs problem. 3. Partial UITabBarItem attributes are not bridge to ESTabBarItem. 4. ~~The picture of 'More' item in ESTabBarItemMoreContentView is not set into framework, plan to convert it to CGBitmap.~~ ## Sponsor You can support the project by checking out our sponsor page.
