ToggleButton

<ui5-toggle-button>

The ui5-toggle-button component is an enhanced ui5-button that can be toggled between pressed and normal states. Users can use the ui5-toggle-button as a switch to turn a setting on or off. It can also be used to represent an independent choice similar to a check box.

Clicking or tapping on a ui5-toggle-button changes its state to pressed. The button returns to its initial state when the user clicks or taps on it again. By applying additional custom CSS-styling classes, apps can give a different style to any ui5-toggle-button.
