## What it is
A Swift library that subclasses UITabBarController to add swipe gestures for switching between tabs on iOS. It offers three built-in transition animations (side-by-side, overlap, push) with zero-setup integration via Storyboards or subclassing.

## Use cases
- add swipe gestures to switch tabs in an iOS app
- animate tab transitions with a side-by-side effect
- make a UITabBarController feel like a swipeable pager
- enable or disable tab swiping at runtime
- customize tab switch animation to push or overlap styles

## When to choose
- you want native-feeling swipe navigation between tabs with minimal setup
- you need multiple selectable transition animation styles
- your app already uses UITabBarController and you want to enhance it without rewriting navigation

## When to avoid
- you need swipeable tabs on Android or cross-platform frameworks
- you want fully custom interactive transitions beyond the three provided types
- you need a library under active development with recent Swift version support
