The accordion uses [collapse]({{< docsref "/components/collapse" >}}) internally to make it collapsible. To render an accordion that's expanded, add the `.open` class on the `.accordion`.
<strong>This is the first item's accordion body.</strong> It is shown by default, until the collapse plugin adds the appropriate classes that we use to style each element. These classes control the overall appearance, as well as the showing and hiding via CSS transitions. You can modify any of this with custom CSS or overriding our default variables. It's also worth noting that just about any HTML can go within the <code>.accordion-body</code>, though the transition does limit overflow.

### Flush
Add `.accordion-flush` to remove the default `background-color`, some borders, and some rounded corners to render accordions edge-to-edge with their parent container.

Nothing more exciting happening here in terms of content, but just filling up the space to make it look, at least at first glance, a bit more representative of how this would look in a real-world application.</div>

As part of Bootstrap's evolving CSS variables approach, accordions now use local CSS variables on `.accordion` for enhanced real-time customization. Values for the CSS variables are set via Sass, so Sass customization is still supported, too.
