nav-toggle

shadow

Toggles are switches that change the state of a single option. They can be switched on or off by pressing or swiping them. Toggles can also be checked programmatically by setting the checked property.

Basic Usage

On / Off Labels

Toggles can enable on/off labels by setting the enableOnOffLabels property. This is important for accessibility as it makes it easier to differentiate between a checked and unchecked toggle.

Theming

Colors

CSS Custom Properties

CSS custom properties can be combined with standard CSS to target different parts of a toggle. We can modify the width and height of the toggle directly to change the size of the track, while using the --handle-width and --handle-height custom properties to customize the handle size.

CSS Shadow Parts

We can further customize toggle by targeting specific shadow parts that are exposed. Any CSS property on these parts can be styled and they can also be combined with CSS custom properties.
