Help with client-side state

[warm creek]

I think a popular approach in remix for this is to use the Url as the "state". So the Button would redirect to a different route e.g. "/tabs/Romaji".
This would match a custom route "tabs.$selectedtab" an a nested Route where you could load the desired data based on the param passed to the function.

I think this is good behavior for NavLink, because there can be many search parameters, and in the future new ones may be added, for example related to analytics (where the user came from, referral link, etc.)
