Collapse
Collapse shows and hides content with a short animation. Point a button or link at the target with data-bs-toggle="collapse", keep aria-expanded and aria-controls in sync, and use it for read-more text, filter panels, sub-menus and expandable rows.
1Button toggle
A button with data-bs-toggle="collapse" shows and hides the target.
<button class="btn btn-primary" type="button" data-bs-toggle="collapse" data-bs-target="#collapse-908" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="collapse-908">Toggle details</button>
<div class="collapse" id="collapse-908">
<div class="card card-body mt-2">
Every detail is handled by people who care about getting it right. Nutrition plans fit your routine and the food you actually enjoy.
</div>
</div>2Link toggle
A link with href="#id" and role="button" works the same way.
Thousands of members already trust us, and we work hard to keep it that way.
<a class="link-primary" data-bs-toggle="collapse" href="#collapse-909" role="button" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="collapse-909"><i class="bi bi-info-circle-fill" aria-hidden="true"></i> What does this mean?</a>
<div class="collapse" id="collapse-909">
<p class="small text-body-secondary mt-2 mb-0">Thousands of members already trust us, and we work hard to keep it that way.</p>
</div>3Horizontal collapse
collapse-horizontal animates the width; the content needs a fixed width.
<button class="btn btn-outline-primary" type="button" data-bs-toggle="collapse" data-bs-target="#collapse-910" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="collapse-910">Toggle width</button>
<div style="min-height: 110px;" class="mt-2">
