  1. Great tutorial! I’m trying to figure out how to add a third tab. Based on `{activeTab === “tab1” ? : }` I’m guessing this isn’t possible?

  2. While this works, I’d consider using:
    – nav with a in it (no li links, semantic)
    – role and aria-* tags (screen readers)
    – useTabs hook (headless components)

    apologies if I missed one of the above while flying over it like the “veccino” (great Netflix series) and thx 4 the efforts
