TabLayout with FrameLayout
In the previous page, we created a sliding tabs using TabLayout and ViewPager. Here, we are going to create non sliding tabs using TabLayout and FrameLayout.
Items of TabLayout are implemented by adding TabItem of android support design widget.
Example of TabLayout using FrameLayout
Let's create an example of TabLayout using FrameLayout and Fragment.
File: activity.xml
Create an activity.xml file with TabLayout and FrameLayout view components.

File: build.gradle
Now gave the dependency library of TabLayout in build.gradle file.
implementation 'com.android.support:design:26.1.0'
File: MainActivity.java
package tablayout.example.com.tablayoutwithframelayout;

import android.support.v4.app.FragmentTransaction;

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.FrameLayout;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
TabLayout tabLayout;
FrameLayout frameLayout;
Fragment fragment = null;
FragmentManager fragmentManager;
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();

tabLayout.addOnTabSelectedListener(new TabLayout.OnTabSelectedListener() {

switch (tab.getPosition()) {
case 0:

break;
case 1:

break;
case 2:

break;
case 3:
fragment = new PhpFragment();
break;
}
FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction ft = fm.beginTransaction();
ft.replace(R.id.frameLayout, fragment);
ft.setTransition(FragmentTransaction.TRANSIT_FRAGMENT_OPEN);
ft.commit();
}
@Override
public void onTabUnselected(TabLayout.Tab tab) {

@Override

}
}
import android.support.design.widget.TabLayout;

import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

}
@Override
public void onTabUnselected(TabLayout.Tab tab) {

}
Now create different fragment files for all different tabs.
