In order to open a new tab in vim, in normal mode type :tabnew
.
This will open a new tab with an empty buffer.
You can read more by typing :help tabnew
, which outputs this message:

Open a new tab page with an empty window, after the current
tab page. If [count] is given the new tab page appears after
the tabpage [count] otherwise the new tab page will appear
after the current one. >

" note: it is one further than :tabnew
:-tabnew " opens tabpage before the current
:0tabnew " opens tabpage before the first one
