What I learned

For this project, I decided to try the bonus challenge and build the accordion with pure CSS. Although I've used CSS for years, I felt like a kid in class. It was fun to learn how to create states that would normally be done with javascript using only a checkbox and some CSS styles.

Useful resources

• Pure CSS Accordion - A couple of examples of accordions built with pure CSS. I didn't use their code, but I was also inspired it.
• 20+ Amazing Pure CSS Accordions [Examples 2022] - More examples of pure CSS accordions for inspiration.
