Collapse API

API reference docs for the React Collapse component. Learn about the props, CSS, and other APIs of this exported module.

Demos

For examples and details on the usage of this React component, visit the component demo pages:

Import

import Collapse from '@mui/material/Collapse';
// or
import { Collapse } from '@mui/material';
You can learn about the difference by reading this guide on minimizing bundle size.

The Collapse transition is used by the Vertical Stepper StepContent component. It uses react-transition-group internally.
