Tailwind CSS Dropdown
The Dropdown component is designed to present users with a neat and organized list of actions or additional content. Enabled by a JavaScript dropdown plugin, it ensures a smooth, collapsible interface for enhanced navigation and space efficiency.
Requires JS
Note that this component requires the use of the third-party Floating UI plugin, else you can skip this message if you are already using Preline UI as a package.
Transform style animation
We are using Floating UI library for dropdown and tooltip and this library uses hardcoded styles like transform for menu positioning. In this situation we can use Tailwind translate classes for sub-container inside menu, also just add data-hs-transition attribute for the sub-container.
Auto close behavior
By default, the dropdown menu is closed when clicking inside or outside the dropdown menu. You can use the --auto-close:inside (outside | false) class to change this behavior of the dropdown.
