Segmented Button for M3E
npm install @m3e/segmented-buttonm3e-segmented-button and m3e-button-segment components allows users to select one or more options from a horizontal group. Each segment behaves like a toggle-able button, supporting icon and label content, selection state, and accessibility roles. Built with Material Design 3 principles, it adapts shape, color, and ripple feedback based on interaction state and input modality. Segments are visually unified but independently interactive.
