Description
Hi team 👋,
I’m using react-tabs and noticed that when I update the tab index based on a dynamic state (like from an API or async action), sometimes the active tab doesn’t switch as expected.
Is there a recommended way to handle dynamic tab switching with updated state?
Thanks for the great package — really helpful in many projects! 🙌

Research direction
The issue names no file, test, or entry point and includes no reproduction or code sample. Start by creating a minimal react-tabs case where the tab index changes after an API or async update, then trace the controlled tab state handling. Done means the dynamic update reliably activates the expected tab and the behavior is covered by a reproducible check.
