Combine with Collapse

Together with .blue-collapse and <details> you can create a collapsable sub menu. Could be used inside the sidebar.

Click here to go the example on the Collapse page.

Grab the code

When you don't use the entire Blue Web library, you can also just copy and paste the required code into your own project.

  1. Copy and paste the following code into your project. Source: @/dist/styles/mixins/_menu-item.scss
