Sizes
There are two available sizes and the only difference is the title text size. You can use the Small size on large breakpoints, but not the Large size on small breakpoints due to the potential of long title text wrapping to more than two lines.

Configuration
An expanded panel does not have a maximum height, but it may scroll if constrained by vertical space. The width of an accordion varies based on content and page layout. Title text and icons are horizontally aligned.
Accent slot
The accent slot can be positioned inline or below the panel's title. This can contain tags, badges, or other small elements with secondary information.
Nested panels
Panels can be nested to help organize complex or granular sections of content.
Stacked panels
Multiple panels can be expanded simultaneously even when nested.
