Steps
Steps create interactive, collapsible sections that are perfect for tutorials, guides, and step-by-step instructions. They can be used individually or grouped together in a steps container. Each step can be interactive (collapsible) or static, and includes a visual marker with an optional title.
Properties
id
string required
A unique identifier for the step. This is used internally for step management and accessibility.
title
string optional
The title displayed in the step header. This appears next to the step marker and provides a brief description of the step.
interactivity
string optional
Controls whether the step is interactive (collapsible) or static:
"none": Makes the step static (non-collapsible)- Any other value or omitted: Makes the step interactive (collapsible)
icon
string optional
A custom icon to display in the step marker. Uses Scalar icon format. If not provided, the component will use the default step marker icon.
childIndex
number optional
The position of this step within a steps container. Used internally for step ordering and navigation.

Static Step (Non-collapsible)
This step cannot be collapsed and is always visible.
const config = {
theme: 'dark',
interactive: false,
}
<scalar-step
id="step-2"
title="Configuration"
interactivity="none">
