Research direction

Start by reading the Collapse and Panel APIs and tracing how activeKey controls panel state. Compare that flow with the requested isActive prop behavior; done means a Panel can open programmatically in uncontrolled Collapse usage without requiring activeKey, with the expected behavior covered by tests.

Description

Hi there,

thanks for this component, it really helps a lot

only thing I'm having difficulty with is being able to simply open panel programatically by passing a isActive prop to the panel without having to go the whole controlled way (with activeKey on the Collapse)

is it possible?

thanks a lot
