The collapse plugin is also known as an "accordion" plugin on the Web.
Accordion houses multiple vertically stacked tabs, but can open only one tab at a time.
In Bootstrap, a Accordion is created by housing multiple panel components together in a single container.
A panel has two components: the panel-heading and panel-body.
To create a collapse, we need a group of panels contained inside a container.
This container is created using a div element with the class panel-group
.
It should also have an ID associated with it.
