* Description
This layer adds support for tabs. Implementation is done using [[https://github.com/ema2159/centaur-tabs][Centaur Tabs]].

** Features:
- Sets up tabs using Centaur tabs as backend
- Optionally auto hide tabs after delay

* Install
To use this configuration layer, add it to your =~/.spacemacs=. You will need to
add =tabs= to the existing =dotspacemacs-configuration-layers= list in this
file.

* Hide tabs
You can set hooks for buffers in which it isn't desired to have tabs by
customizing =centaur-tabs-hide-tabs-hooks=

Alternatively you can set ~tabs-auto-hide~ to ~t~ to auto hide tabs after some
delay ~tabs-auto-hide-delay~ via the :variables keyword in your dotfile:

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (tabs :variables
        tabs-auto-hide t
        tabs-auto-hide-delay 3)
#+END_SRC
