Tailwind CSS Dropdown - Flowbite

Use the Tailwind CSS dropdown elements to show a list of items displayed as a menu

You can use the Tailwind CSS dropdown element from Flowbite to show a menu when clicking on an element such as a button. Make sure to include Flowbite’s JavaScript file inside your project to enable dropdowns.

If you want to show a dropdown menu when clicking on an element, make sure that you add the data-dropdown-toggle="dropdownId" data attribute to the element that will toggle the dropdown menu.

The dropdownId is the id of the dropdown menu element.
