When your users scan left-to-right, that chevron indicator arrives way too late. This React accordion flips the script with flex-row-reverse from Tailwind, putting the chevron on the left from shadcn/ui and Radix UI. It mirrors file explorer UX where the expand action comes before the label—perfect for navigation menus and sidebar content.
