Usage

Collapsible hides and reveals content behind a trigger button. Use it in settings panels, FAQ pages, or detail views to keep the page scannable while letting users drill into sections they care about. Wrap multiple collapsibles in XDSCollapsibleGroup for accordion behavior. For custom collapsible components, use the `useXDSCollapsible` hook directly (`xds hook useXDSCollapsible`).

Best practices

GuidancePractices
DoWrap each XDSCollapsible in an XDSCard for visual separation in accordion layouts.
DoUse XDSCollapsibleGroup with type="single" for settings or FAQ pages where only one section should be open at a time.
DoUse type="multiple" when users need to compare content across sections, like feature lists or pricing tiers.
DoStart sections open (defaultIsOpen) when the content is likely needed on first view — don't make users click to see essential info.
Don'tHide critical or required content behind a collapsible — users may not discover it.
Don'tNest collapsibles more than two levels deep — it makes content hard to find and navigate.
Don'tUse a collapsible for a single short paragraph — just show the text directly instead.

Sub-components

Collapsible is a compound component with 2 sub-components.

XDSCollapsible

A primitive that makes any content collapsible — a trigger button toggles visibility of the content area, managing its own state or deferring to a parent XDSCollapsibleGroup.
PropTypeDescription
triggerrequired
ReactNodeContent shown in the trigger area (always visible).
children
ReactNodeContent that collapses and expands.
defaultIsOpen
boolean (default: true)Default open state (uncontrolled).
isOpen
booleanControlled open state.
onOpenChange
(isOpen: boolean) => voidCallback invoked when the open state changes.
value
stringIdentifier used for group coordination. Required when placed inside an XDSCollapsibleGroup.

XDSCollapsibleGroup

Coordinates multiple XDSCollapsible instances so only one (single mode) or any number (multiple mode) can be open at a time. Renders no wrapper DOM element.
PropTypeDescription
childrenrequired
ReactNodeXDSCollapsible instances to coordinate.
type
'single' | 'multiple' (default: 'single')Whether one or many items can be open simultaneously.
defaultValue
string | string[]Default open item(s) for uncontrolled usage. Use a string for single mode and an array for multiple mode.
value
string | string[]Controlled open item(s).
onChange
(value: string | string[]) => voidCallback invoked when the set of open items changes.

Examples

Common configurations, variations, and states.
Collapsible — ControlledManage the open section from parent state. Use when the open state needs to sync with a URL param, form, or external control.

Collapsible — Single ModeOnly one section open at a time. Use for settings pages or any list where expanding one item should close the others.

Collapsible — With DividersCollapsible sections separated by dividers instead of cards. Use for inline disclosure in detail panels or sidebar content where cards would add too much weight.
