Expand & Collapse Widget Showcase

This panel offers a brief overview of why expand/collapse widgets are helpful. They allow you to streamline layouts and reduce visual noise by hiding supplementary information until a visitor wants to see it.

Below are a few common questions about implementing the widget:

• Do I need JavaScript? It helps when custom styling or advanced behavior is required.
• Can I use native elements? Yes, the <details> element provides built-in disclosure functionality, though custom solutions offer more control.
• How do I handle accessibility? Manage focus, use ARIA attributes, and ensure toggled content is announced to assistive technologies.
