As long as it takes to make the best web design on the Mac! But, seriously we’re aiming to release Elements as a 1.0 later this year. Even when it’s shipped as a 1.0 we plan to keep the roadmap open and work with our users to improve Elements 😊 ---

I might be missing something obvious in the config section but can you default to having one of the Accordions open when you visit a page. [Next page](https://forums.realmacsoftware.com/t/dev-diary-ep60-new-accordion-component/46218.md?page=2)
