Semantic UI is an open-source framework that uses CSS and jQuery to build great user interfaces. It is the same as a bootstrap for use and has great different elements to use to make your website look more amazing. It uses a class to add CSS to the elements.
Comments are an excellent way to display user feedback and interact about the content with other users. Semantic UI provides us with a Semantic UI styled comment element. Let’s have a look at various comment states.
Semantic UI Comment States:
- Collapsed: Semantic UI allows us to hide the comments from the user’s view by using the collapsed state. Comments can be viewed at the will of the user.
Syntax:
<div class="ui collapsed comments">
<div class="comment">
...
</div>
...
</div>
Note: Use the above syntax according to the need by using a combination of Semantic UI classes. Refer to the examples below for a better understanding of the classes.
Example 1: In the below example, we have created standard comments which can be collapsed at will.

</ div >
< div class = "actions" >
< a class = "reply" >Reply</ a >
</ div >
</ div >
</ div >
</ div >
</ div >
< script >
const toggleComments = () => {
const comments = document.querySelector(".comments");
comments.classList.toggle("collapsed");
}
</ script >
</ body >
</ html >
