Traditional nested menus hide their expand state behind tiny arrows. This React multi-level accordion uses bold plus/minus toggles from Lucide React that scream "click me!" Built with shadcn/ui and Radix UI, parent sections use visible indicators while children toggle with chevrons—great for FAQ sections or knowledge bases with nested categories.
