I would like to have scrollable content within a bootstrap accordion, but can't get it to work. Closest I have got was using flex-column and overflow-hidden on parents and overflow-auto on the content elements like this:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<header></header>
<main>
<script
type="text/javascript"
src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/mdb-ui-kit/3.11.0/mdb.min.js"
></script>

<strong>This is the first item's accordion body.</strong> It is hidden by default,
until the collapse plugin adds the appropriate classes that we use to style each
element. These classes control the overall appearance, as well as the showing and
hiding via CSS transitions. You can modify any of this with custom CSS or
overriding our default variables. It's also worth noting that just about any HTML
can go within the <strong>.accordion-body</strong>, though the transition does
limit overflow.

But there because of the overflow-hidden on the accordion-item element, when you open a page on it, the other elements get shrunk.
