Add Your Brief
Add your context below. It will be included with the prompt when you copy or download.
Create an HTML/CSS/JavaScript interaction study with explicit start, active and completed states and a readable prefers-reduced-motion fallback for [PROJECT] and [AUDIENCE]. The task is: Accordion Interaction.
Required content and structure
Animate disclosure panels while preserving section labels and open-state feedback.
Use [APPROVED_CONTENT] as the source of names, dates, figures, claims and destinations. List missing inputs before substituting anything. If a demonstration is needed, label its content as fictional. Do not invent customer quotes, rankings, partner logos or product capabilities.
Design direction
Use [BRAND_RULES] and the design system already selected in the project. If no system is supplied, start with this direction: white, charcoal and vivid green highlights; clearly labeled start, transition and end states. Keep type, spacing and color roles consistent. Prioritize the task over decorative elements and avoid a generic collection of unrelated cards.
Content preparation
Define section labels, panel content and whether multiple panels may remain open. Include a long panel and links inside expanded content.
Layout and behavior
Animate disclosure without obscuring the label or changing its meaning. Keep the expanded state visible through text or an icon, and align motion with actual content visibility.
Task-specific acceptance check
- Keep keyboard operation and hidden-content semantics correct.
- Open panels by keyboard, follow a link inside and collapse them again.
- Hidden content must leave the focus order, and reduced motion should preserve the same disclosure behavior.
Implementation and review
Keep text editable. Use semantic structure, descriptive controls, visible keyboard focus and appropriate empty/error states. Check narrow and wide layouts. Respect reduced-motion preferences. Preserve any existing project framework and dependencies; do not silently replace the stack. Return the editable files and explain any incomplete behavior or unsupported inputs. Review this specific task before proposing extra features.
Make the complete information and action available without animation. Provide pause or dismissal where relevant. Document triggers and transitions; do not replace actual progress with a decorative timer.
Reference attachment and reconstruction goal
Attach reference.webp from this prompt’s download bundle alongside this prompt in OpenDesign. Build an editable result with a similar composition and hierarchy; do not embed the whole reference image as the finished interface. Preserve approved project content and brand rules if they conflict with fictional sample labels. If the image is missing or unreadable, ask for it instead of claiming visual fidelity.
Reference composition and content
Use the attached reference.webp as the visual reference for Accordion Interaction. Before building, identify the major regions from top to bottom, their relative widths and heights, alignment, spacing, typography hierarchy, surface colors, borders, imagery and repeated components. Preserve those relationships rather than substituting a generic template. Required task content: Animate disclosure panels while preserving section labels and open-state feedback. Use the following task-specific layout guidance when translating the image into editable elements: Animate disclosure without obscuring the label or changing its meaning. Keep the expanded state visible through text or an icon, and align motion with actual content visibility.

Interaction specification
The reference is a static concept: the behavior below is a requirement to implement, not proof that the picture already works. Copy the customized prompt into your working project. Start with the core task: Animate disclosure panels while preserving section labels and open-state feedback. Keep keyboard operation and hidden-content semantics correct. For each visible control, specify its trigger, affected state and feedback; implement local changes with consistent state across related views. Give search and filters real results, selection controls an explicit active state, and save actions visible pending/success/failure feedback where relevant. Do not add unrelated workflows. Use proper links for navigation, buttons for actions and accessible names for icon controls. Do not imply a backend operation succeeded when only a local demo changed.
Visual comparison and delivery
- Compare the result with the attached image at matching proportions. Review major region placement, relative image sizes, line breaks, spacing, typography hierarchy, contrast, active states and content density before polishing decorative details.
- Then test the narrow layout without squeezing desktop text into tiny labels.
- Keep logos, photos and icons as separate assets and all meaningful labels editable. List any unavailable fonts/assets and any intentional departures. Return the working files plus a concise account of implemented behavior and remaining integrations; do not promise a pixel-identical result from the prompt alone.

How to Write an Accordion Interaction Design Prompt
Use this accordion interaction design prompt to animate disclosure panels while preserving section labels and open-state feedback.
The reference is an AI-generated concept. The instructions below describe what to build and test; the image does not demonstrate working behavior.
Keep the Disclosure State Understandable
An accordion saves space only when its labels let readers predict what is inside.
Animation should reinforce opening and closing rather than delay access to the answer. Animate disclosure without obscuring the label or changing its meaning. Keep the expanded state visible through text or an icon, and align motion with actual content visibility.
From the Prompt
Animate disclosure without obscuring the label or changing its meaning.
Make It Your Own
Use buttons for [SECTION_LABELS], expose expanded state and associate each button with its panel. Define whether multiple sections may remain open and keep essential instructions outside collapsed panels.
Prepare the Accordion Interaction Content
The active panel reveals a paragraph and a short list below the selected section label. Prepare this content separately from the collapsed labels so expansion reveals useful detail.
Define section labels, panel content and whether multiple panels may remain open. Include a long panel and links inside expanded content.
From the Prompt
Animate disclosure panels while preserving section labels and open-state feedback.
Make It Your Own
For [PROJECT], use [APPROVED_CONTENT] as the source for this accordion interaction. Define section labels, panel content and whether multiple panels may remain open. Include a long panel and links inside expanded content. Identify missing inputs before replacing them with demonstration content.
Test Focus When a Panel Closes
The final panel keeps the selected heading and its upward chevron visible above the content. Check keyboard operation and an explicit expanded state, rather than relying only on the green highlight.
Close a panel containing an active control. Focus must remain in a meaningful place, and hidden content must leave the keyboard sequence. Open panels by keyboard, follow a link inside and collapse them again. Hidden content must leave the focus order, and reduced motion should preserve the same disclosure behavior.
From the Prompt
Keep keyboard operation and hidden-content semantics correct.
Make It Your Own
Review the accordion interaction against this requirement: Keep keyboard operation and hidden-content semantics correct. Open panels by keyboard, follow a link inside and collapse them again. Hidden content must leave the focus order, and reduced motion should preserve the same disclosure behavior. Preserve approved content and revise only the parts that fail this check.
Review Your Accordion Interaction Result
The preview is a static storyboard. It does not demonstrate working animation, measured performance or accessibility. Test the implemented interaction and reduced-motion path.
- Open panels by keyboard, follow a link inside and collapse them again. Hidden content must leave the focus order, and reduced motion should preserve the same disclosure behavior.
Follow-Up Prompt
Use this after the first result. It narrows the revision to the most important part of this task.
Refine the current accordion interaction. Open panels by keyboard, follow a link inside and collapse them again. Hidden content must leave the focus order, and reduced motion should preserve the same disclosure behavior. Preserve the approved content and visual direction; change only the parts needed to resolve these issues.
