* Introduction
|
|
|
|
The accordion component is a popular UI element that helps to organize and
|
|
present content in a space-efficient manner. Accordions consist of a list of
|
|
headers that users can click on to toggle the visibility of associated content.
|
|
This is particularly useful for presenting large amounts of information in a
|
|
confined space while keeping the interface clean and uncluttered. The Accordion
|
|
component is perfect for FAQ sections, multi-part forms, or any situation where
|
|
you need to present the user with a range of options or information, but you
|
|
want to keep the interface uncluttered by hiding content that isn't immediately
|
|
necessary.
|
|
|
|
** Bootstrap Accordions
|
|
|
|
[[https://getbootstrap.com/docs/][Bootstrap]] is a popular front-end framework that provides ready-to-use
|
|
components for building responsive and modern web applications. One of its
|
|
components is the [[https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.3/components/accordion/][accordion]], which enhances the user experience by providing a
|
|
user-friendly way to display and interact with content.
|
|
|
|
*** How Bootstrap Accordions Work
|
|
|
|
Bootstrap accordions are created using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The Bootstrap
|
|
JavaScript library adds the necessary interactivity to the accordion. Here's
|
|
how it works:
|
|
|
|
- Each accordion item consists of a header and content section.
|
|
- Clicking on an accordion item's header toggles the visibility of its content.
|
|
- By default, only one item's content is visible at a time. Clicking on a
|
|
header closes any open content before opening the clicked item's content.
|
|
- Bootstrap's JavaScript library manages the animations and transitions for
|
|
smooth content expansion and collapse.
|
|
|
|
* Integrating dev.metalisp.sbt/component/accordion Macros
|
|
|
|
To create Bootstrap-style accordions in your Common Lisp web application, you
|
|
can use the cl-sbt/accordion macros. These macros provide a convenient way to
|
|
generate the necessary HTML structure for accordion components. Here's how you
|
|
can integrate them into your project:
|
|
|
|
#+name: accordion-page
|
|
#+begin_src lisp :results output file :file-ext html
|
|
(defpackage my-web-accordion-app
|
|
(:use :cl)
|
|
(:import-from :dev.metalisp.sbt :with-page)
|
|
(:import-from :dev.metalisp.sbt/component/accordion :accordion)
|
|
(:export :generate-accordion-page))
|
|
|
|
(in-package :my-web-accordion-app)
|
|
|
|
(defun generate-accordion-page ()
|
|
"Generates an HTML page with accordion using accordion macros."

This example demonstrates how to integrate the cl-sbt/accordion macros into a
|
|
web application to create an interactive accordion component. The macros help
|
|
generate the necessary HTML structure for the accordion, which allows users to
|
|
navigate through content conveniently.
