## Anatomy

Import the component and assemble its parts:

```svelte
<script lang="ts">
	import { Accordion } from '@sveltery/base/accordion';
</script>

<Accordion.Root>
	<Accordion.Item>
		<Accordion.Header>
			<Accordion.Trigger />
		</Accordion.Header>
		<Accordion.Panel />
	</Accordion.Item>
</Accordion.Root>
```

## Examples

### Open multiple panels

You can set up the accordion to allow multiple panels to be open at the same time using the `multiple` prop.

```svelte
<script lang="ts">
	import { Accordion } from '@sveltery/base/accordion';
</script>

<Accordion.Root
	multiple
	class="flex w-full max-w-80 flex-col border border-neutral-950 text-neutral-950 dark:border-white dark:text-white"
>
	<Accordion.Item>
		<Accordion.Header>
			<Accordion.Trigger
				class="group flex w-full items-center justify-between gap-4 bg-transparent px-3 py-2 text-left text-sm font-normal text-neutral-950 select-none hover:not-data-disabled:bg-neutral-100 focus-visible:relative focus-visible:z-1 focus-visible:outline-2 focus-visible:outline-neutral-950 dark:focus-visible:outline-white dark:text-white dark:hover:not-data-disabled:bg-neutral-800"

### Hidden until found

The `hiddenUntilFound` prop hides closed panels with [`hidden="until-found"`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Reference/Global_attributes/hidden) so the browser can search their contents and reveal the matching panel automatically. It can be set on each `Accordion.Panel`, or once on `Accordion.Root` to apply to all panels.

To try it, press <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>F</kbd> (<kbd>Cmd</kbd>+<kbd>F</kbd> on macOS) and search for "restocking"—the browser opens the closed panel containing the match. When `hiddenUntilFound` is enabled, closed panels always remain mounted in the DOM, which also makes their contents indexable by search engines.

Older browsers that don't support `hidden="until-found"` keep panels hidden until their trigger opens them, and find-in-page skips over the contents.

```svelte
<script lang="ts">
	import { Accordion } from '@sveltery/base/accordion';
</script>

<Accordion.Root
	hiddenUntilFound
	class="flex w-full max-w-80 flex-col border border-neutral-950 text-neutral-950 dark:border-white dark:text-white"

## API reference

### Root

Groups all parts of the accordion. Renders a `<div>` element.

**Accordion.Root Props:**

| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
| :--- | :--- | :------ | :---------- |
| value | `unknown[]` | `[]` | Values of the open items. Use `bind:value` to share the array with the parent. A value passed without `bind:` holds until the parent changes it. |
| disabled | `boolean \| null` | `false` | Whether the accordion should ignore user interaction. |
| hiddenUntilFound | `boolean` | `false` | Lets page search find a closed panel and open it. Overrides `keepMounted` and uses `hidden="until-found"`. |
| keepMounted | `boolean` | `false` | Whether closed panels stay in the DOM. Ignored when `hiddenUntilFound` is set. |
| loopFocus | `boolean` | `true` | Deprecated. Arrow keys no longer move focus, so this does nothing. |
| onValueChange | `(value: unknown[], eventDetails: AccordionRootChangeEventDetails) => void` | - | Called before the open values change. Call `eventDetails.cancel()` to veto it. |
| multiple | `boolean` | `false` | When false, opening one item closes the others. When true, each item changes on its own. |
| orientation | `AccordionOrientation` | `'vertical'` | Deprecated. It no longer moves focus. |
| render | `Snippet<[props: HTMLAttributes<HTMLDivElement>, state: AccordionRootState, children: Snippet \| undefined]>` | - | Replace the default `<div>`. Spread `props` onto the host and render `children`. |

| Attribute          | Description                                         |
| ------------------ | --------------------------------------------------- |
| `data-orientation` | The `orientation` prop: `vertical` or `horizontal`. |
| `data-disabled`    | Present when the accordion is disabled.             |

### Item

Groups an accordion header with the corresponding panel. Renders a `<div>` element.

**Accordion.Item Props:**

| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
| :--- | :--- | :------ | :---------- |
| value | `unknown` | - | Identifies this item in `value`. Omitted values get a generated `base-ui-` id. |
| disabled | `boolean \| null` | `false` | Whether this item should ignore user interaction. The root `disabled` value also disables it. |
| onOpenChange | `(open: boolean, eventDetails: AccordionItemChangeEventDetails) => void` | - | Called before this item opens or closes. Call `eventDetails.cancel()` to veto it. |
| render | `Snippet<[props: HTMLAttributes<HTMLDivElement>, state: AccordionItemState, children: Snippet \| undefined]>` | - | Replace the default `<div>`. Spread `props` onto the host and render `children`. |

| Attribute          | Description                                                         |

| `data-hidden`      | Present when the item is closed and its panel has finished closing. |
| `data-disabled`    | Present when the item or the accordion is disabled.                 |
| `data-orientation` | The `orientation` prop of the root.                                 |
| `data-index`       | The index of the item in DOM order.                                 |

### Header

A heading that labels the corresponding panel. Renders an `<h3>` element.

**Accordion.Header Props:**

| Prop | Type | Default | Description |
| :--- | :--- | :------ | :---------- |
| render | `Snippet<[props: HTMLAttributes<HTMLHeadingElement>, state: AccordionHeaderState, children: Snippet \| undefined]>` | - | Replace the default `<h3>`. Spread `props` onto the host and render `children`. |

| disabled | `boolean \| null` | - | Whether the trigger should ignore user interaction. `false` does not re-enable a disabled item or root. |
| nativeButton | `boolean` | `true` | Whether the host is a native `<button>`. Set `false` when `render` supplies a non-button element. |
| onclick | `MouseEventHandler<HTMLElement> \| null` | - | Runs before the trigger's handler. Call `event.preventDefault()` to skip it. |
| render | `Snippet<[props: AccordionTriggerHostProps, state: AccordionTriggerState, children: Snippet \| undefined]>` | - | Replace the default `<button>`. Spread `props` onto the host and render `children`. |
