## What it is
CYLTabBarController is an iOS UI library that adds Lottie animations, Liquid Glass styling, red-dot badges, and an enlarged center button to UITabBar with minimal code. It supports both Objective-C and Swift and is tested on recent iOS versions including dark mode.

## Use cases
- add lottie animations to ios tab bar items
- create a tab bar with a raised center plus button
- show red dot badges on tab bar icons
- customize uitabbar appearance with liquid glass style
- dynamically refresh tab bar items at runtime
- support dark mode in a custom tab bar

## When to choose
- building an iOS app with UIKit that needs an animated or custom tab bar
- you need a center action button in the tab bar with one line of setup
- you want badge/red-dot support and dynamic tab updates out of the box

## When to avoid
- building with SwiftUI tab APIs instead of UIKit
- your app targets platforms other than iOS
- you need a fully custom navigation or non-tab-based layout
