The vim-tab-bar.el package enhances Emacs' built-in tab-bar, giving it a style similar to Vim's tabbed browsing interface. It also ensures that the tab-bar's appearance aligns with the current theme's overall color scheme.
This is how the Emacs vim-tab-bar.el package makes the tab-bar appear:
The Emacs built-in tab-bar feature, which enables users to manage multiple buffers through a visual interface at the top of the Emacs window, is available in Emacs version 27.1 or higher.
- Vim-like tab bar: Makes the Emacs
