```How this works
Each panel wraps a hidden input[type=checkbox] followed by a <label> header and a .acc-body content div. When checked, the general sibling input:checked ~ .acc-body rule changes max-height from 0 to 600px with overflow: hidden and a cubic-bezier ease, producing the accordion expand animation. The chevron rotates 180° via transform: rotate(-135deg) on the ::before pseudo that draws the arrow.
Standard accordions share a border and remove the border-top on non-first panels so adjacent borders don't double up. The gap variant (.accordion--gap) adds gap: 8px and sets border-radius: 12px on every panel so they appear as individual floating cards. FAQ panels use a larger border-radius: 28px for an expressive pill shape.
Make it yours
- Change expand speed by editing
transition: max-height 300ms cubic-bezier(.4,0,.2,1)— use200msfor snappier interactions. - Add an expand-all feature by using
:focus-withinon the wrapper to keep all open simultaneously when any child is focused. - Increase the max-height cap from 600px to 1200px if panels contain long-form content like embedded tables or forms.
- Style the active header background by targeting
input:checked + .acc-headerwith abackground: var(--primary-light). - Add a count badge next to the title by positioning a
<span>absolutely inside the header label.
Gotchas — read before shipping
max-heightanimation cannot animate toauto— the cap must be set higher than any realistic content height, or the panel clips during expansion.- The
:has()selector used for nested panel state detection requires Chrome 105+ / Safari 15.4+ — add a direct sibling fallback for older browsers. - Adding a transition on
paddinginside the body creates a jump at the start of expansion since padding is not 0 when max-height is 0; usepaddingon the inner content div instead.
Browser support
| Chrome | Safari | Firefox | Edge |
|---|---|---|---|
| 105+ | 15.4+ | 103+ | 105+ |
:has() is used for nested checked state detection; falls back to direct sibling combinator in unsupported browsers with minor visual difference.
