UbuntuUI.Tabs

One of the navigation pattern that can be used within an Ubuntu App is the flat navigation. Tabs are the standard way to provide such a navigation pattern from within your application.

Tabs are defined from within the Header part of your application HTML. See the Header class for more information.

Declare the Header and Tabs in HTML as a direct child of the top level Page as a sibling to the content div.
