Accordion

An accordion is a layout component that allows to organize the content in different sections that can be collapsed or expanded. Inside its panels, it allows to have the same content as a window or a tag element, even nested accordions.

Dependencies

If we want to collapse or expand an accordion item using a dependency, we must use one that modifies the attribute selected setting the ID of the item (if it's expanded it will collapse and viceversa)

<dependency target-type="attribute" target-action="selected" value="[child-id]">
...
</dependency>

Examples
