How to Change Label when Radio Button Checked in Tailwind CSS ?

Tailwind CSS is a popular utility-first CSS framework that enables developers to quickly style their web applications without writing much CSS code. In this article, we will discuss how to change the label text of a radio button when it is checked using Tailwind CSS. We will explore different approaches to achieve this and provide examples to demonstrate each approach.

Syntax:

:checked {*/.../*}

There are different ways to change the label text of a radio button when it is checked in Tailwind CSS. Some of these approaches are:

1.  Using the :checked pseudo-class: This approach involves using the :checked pseudo-class in CSS to select the radio button when it is checked and the adjacent sibling selector (+) to select the label element. We can then use the content property to change the label text.
2. Using JavaScript: This approach involves using JavaScript to listen for the “change” event of the radio button and update the label text accordingly.
