## Overview
### The Challenge
Users should be able to:
- View the optimal layout for the component depending on their device's screen size.
- Control the toggle with both their mouse/trackpad and keyboard.
- **Bonus**: Complete the challenge using just HTML and CSS (optional).
### Screenshot
This screenshot shows the final solution with both monthly and annual pricing states.

## My Process
### Built With
- Semantic HTML5 markup
- CSS custom properties
- Flexbox
- CSS Grid
- JavaScript for toggle functionality
- Mobile-first workflow
### What I Learned
While building this project, I refined my skills in:
1. **Responsive Design**:
- Using CSS Grid and Flexbox to create a layout that adapts well across different screen sizes.
2. **Accessible Toggle Design**:
- Implemented a toggle with support for both mouse and keyboard interactions.
- Added `aria-checked` for better screen reader support.
Here's a code snippet demonstrating the toggle functionality:
```javascript
const toggle = document.getElementById("pricing-toggle");
toggle.addEventListener("change", function () {
const isMonthly = this.checked;
document.getElementById("basic-price").textContent = isMonthly
? "$19.99"
: "$199.99";
});
```
3. **CSS Variables**:
- Leveraged CSS variables for consistent theming across the component.
```css
:root {
--neutral-very-light-grayish-blue: hsl(240, 78%, 98%);
--neutral-light-grayish-blue: hsl(234, 14%, 74%);
}
```
### Continued Development
In future projects, I aim to:
- Explore more advanced accessibility techniques to ensure all users can navigate my solutions effortlessly.
- Focus on improving performance by optimizing CSS and JavaScript.
- Incorporate modern front-end libraries like React for more dynamic components.
### Useful Resources
