Vertical TabbarController (or TabBar)?

Question

Is there any custom TabBarController or some other way to get the UITabbar on landscape mode as vertical (not horizontal).

When the app starts, the TabBars will be at bottom (horizontal) but when user will rotate screen, the tabBarController will switch to vertical mode on left side.

I have been thinking of using native UITabBar and on rotation of device, to use CoreAnimation to rotate it but I am not sure if this approach is good or not.

I suppose it was clearly understandable by tags..ios (iphone, ipad) — Anand, Apr 10 '12 at 12:32

I translated futuresimple/FSVerticalTabBarController into Swift 5.

My repo is https://github.com/coyingcat/VerticalTabBar

Apple's doc Implementing a Container View Controller is great also
