If the above style options are not enough, you can write you own custom css to apply styles on the elements.

.faq-row-wrapper {
    .faq-title {
    }

    .faq-body {
        .faq-row {
            .row-title {
            }

            .row-content {
                .row-content-text {
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Example with css style

These classnames are applied to the elements and do not contain any styles.

`getRowOptions` props (optional)

A function is passed as a value to getRowOptions prop, which gets called with an array parameter. The length of the array is the same as the number of rows present in FAQ data. 3 functions in an object are exported per row to toggle and scrollTntoView.

[
    // option for first row item
    {
        close: () => {},
        expand: () => {},
        scrollIntoView: (option) => {}, // option values : https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/scrollIntoView#parameters
    },
    {...},
    {...},
    {...},
];

Example:

export default function SampleFaqApp() {
    const [rows, setRowsOption] = useState(null);

    useEffect(() => {
        if (rows) {
            setTimeout(() => {
                rows[0].expand();
            }, 2500);

            setTimeout(() => {
                rows[0].close();
            }, 5000);

            setTimeout(() => {
                rows[0].scrollIntoView();
                // rows[0].scrollIntoView(true);
            }, 10000);
        }
    }, [rows]);

    return (
        <div>
            <h2 className="section-title">FAQ section</h2>

            <div className="faq-style-wrapper">
                <Faq data={data} getRowOptions={setRowsOption} />
            </div>
        </div>
    );

Note: On accessing invalid array index, an error will be logged in console.
