Create collapsible React components with react-collapsed

Modern React applications often incorporate collapsible components, which help manage space and improve user interface by toggling content visibility between collapsed and expanded states. These components are particularly useful for action flows, editable forms, and preference sections, where they can hide non-essential content. The react-collapsed library provides the necessary APIs to create customizable collapsible components with native CSS-based animations, offering flexibility in design as it does not impose pre-built styles or elements. Developers can easily integrate this library into new or existing projects, allowing for control over animation speed, type, and event handling for both simple and nested collapsible components. An example implementation of a preferences page demonstrates the library's capabilities in creating a reusable Section component with customizable properties like default expansion state and collapsed height. While many UI libraries offer collapsible components, react-collapsed stands out by offering a more flexible, hook-based approach, enabling developers to design their own unique UI elements without being restricted by less-customizable pre-built components.
