8.1.5 LayerList

The LayerList widget is used to provide users with a list of the app’s operational layers and the ability to toggle the layer visibility on/off.  As with the BasemapGallery, this is another widget that is often embedded within the Expand widget.

See the Pen LayerList_widget by Jim Detwiler (@jimdetwiler) on CodePen.
