What is an Accordion Block?
An accordion block is a UI component that organises content into collapsible sections. Users can expand or collapse each section to reveal or hide information as needed.
Why Should You Use an Accordion Block?
Accordion blocks help improve readability and user experience by reducing page clutter. They allow users to access information selectively without being overwhelmed by too much text at once.
Where Are Accordion Blocks Commonly Used?
Accordion blocks are commonly used in FAQs, product descriptions, documentation, and mobile-friendly designs to present structured content efficiently.
How Can You Design an Effective Accordion?
Keep headings clear and concise, limit the number of items to avoid overwhelming users, and ensure smooth animations for a seamless experience.
What Are Some Best Practices for Accessibility?
Use proper HTML semantics, such as <button> elements for toggles, add ARIA attributes, and allow keyboard navigation so that all users can interact with the accordion easily.
