In lightning, we can add tabs to the standard page (record page) quickly. Is there any possibility to build a custom tab component which allows us to add tabs to the custom page on the fly JUST LIKE we add tabs easily when we edit the record page.

yes we can create a custom lightning component by which component we can add or remove tabs dynamically same way like this logic (http://sfdcmonkey.com/2017/08/09/add-delete-rows-dynamic/) :

   but my concern with this custom component is, how we can save the state of on the fly tabs after component reload and how we can put custom content in those on the fly tabs ? so i agree with your idea but  i don't think it's practically possible. you can try basic thing but it doesn't make sense.

Thanks

Thank U Piyush for the reply.. So you mean to say
If I had a custom page on which i want to have, sumthing like a custom tab component (Add Tabs), using which i can create/add tabs on the page quickly and easily as we can now do it on the standard page..... Is not possible?

Firstly, I dont have that code( thats my question in first place if we can build a component like that)...
Secondly we wont set/update the standard record page edit settings (for add new tabs on componnet) by lightning component.
We are trying to build a page where we can add tabs, like a lightning page tab; custom component on that page which allows us to add tabs....
So jus wanted to know if we can build something like a custom tab component, where we can add tabs on the fly.
