Show/Hide Accordion Item in Blazor Accordion Component

17 Mar 20258 minutes to read

The Accordion component provides support to show or hide specific accordion items using two approaches:

  • Using conditional rendering
  • Using the Visible property

Using conditional rendering

You can dynamically show or hide specific accordion items using the conditional if statement.

In the following example, the specified accordion item will toggle between showing and hiding when the Show/Hide Item button is clicked.

                <div>Microsoft ASP.NET is a set of technologies in the Microsoft .NET Framework for building Web applications and XML Web services.
