Show Multiple WebParts in Tab in a SharePoint 2013 Page

Introduction

For any site home page content organization is always difficult for organizations and developers. We always need to take care of the look and feel of the home page. If there is too much content on the page entered directly then it creates a vertical (or horizontal) scrollbar. Normal users like to see the content with a very good look and in the least number of clicks. This leads to the idea of creating Tab Controls that help content owners to deliver the content in a more user-friendly way.

This article explains how to customize your SharePoint Home page using a Tab Control.
