    TabButton1()
    TabButton2()
    TabButton3()
}

For the second one views must have the same type, or be manually converted to AnyView

Built-in animatable tab buttons

By default tabs only have a simple animation of color, but you can customize that. This library has two built-in button types you can use out-of-the-box: DropletButton and WiggleButton, and a super custom ColorButton type in Example project. Please feel free to use them in your projects or build your own buttons on top of them.
