A stack of independent cards where opening one smoothly expands its detail and closes any other open card, while every card's summary stays legible whether open or closed. Height animates off the panel's real measured content, so there's never a layout jump.
reactThe loading shape for a grid of cards — media block, title line, sub line, sized to match real card dimensions so the grid doesn't shift when data arrives. Ships media, list and stat variants; static (not faster) under reduced motion and hidden from screen readers.
reactA directory entry — avatar, name, role, a short list of real tel/email/location contact methods, and one primary action. Built for a staff directory or "your account manager" block, not a hover-reveal bio tile.
reactCard that expands into a focused overlay on desktop and a draggable bottom sheet on mobile, with three snap points. Portal-rendered, focus-trapped, scroll-locked and reduced-motion aware.
