Reference Guide

This guide walks through the many component features and styling that will be displayed on the live SCASr website. Navigate to a component of interest for a quick preview!

Accordion

Use this component on a page to serve as an at-a-glance view of important content with the ability to delve deeper into more content under that title if desired. Accordions can also be used to minimize scrolling and create interesting large lists without displaying large amounts of text all at once.
