PropTypeDefaultDescription
AccordionShadcnAccordion—Direct alias of the imported shadcn/ui Accordion; this registry source adds no root props or behavior.
AccordionItemReact.ComponentPropsWithoutRef<typeof AccordionPrimitive.Item> & { asChild?: boolean }—Accepts the Radix Accordion Item props, plus the declared asChild prop. className is merged with the default dashed bottom-border styles.
AccordionTriggerReact.ComponentPropsWithoutRef<typeof AccordionPrimitive.Trigger> & { font?: "normal" | "retro" }—Accepts the Radix Accordion Trigger props. font="normal" disables the retro class; font="retro" or an omitted font applies it. className is merged with that styling.
AccordionContentReact.ComponentPropsWithoutRef<typeof AccordionPrimitive.Content> & { font?: "normal" | "retro" }—Accepts the Radix Accordion Content props. font="normal" disables the retro class; font="retro" or an omitted font applies it. className is merged with the default overflow and open/closed animation styles.
Accessibility
- The root and interactive behavior come from the shadcn/ui Accordion and Radix Accordion primitives; retain their semantic structure and keyboard interaction when composing the component.
- Use concise, descriptive trigger text so users can understand what each section controls.
- Keep each AccordionItem's value unique within its Accordion.
- Do not place interactive controls such as buttons or links inside an AccordionTrigger; place them in AccordionContent instead.
