+## States
+
+Use the `state` option to generate pseudo-class variations. Example pseudo-classes are `:hover` and `:focus`. When a list of states are provided, classnames are created for that pseudo-class. For example, to change opacity on hover, add `state: hover` and you'll get `.opacity-hover:hover` in your compiled CSS.
+
+Need multiple pseudo-classes? Use a space-separated list of states: `state: hover focus`.
+
+```scss
+$utilities: (
+  "opacity": (
+    property: opacity,
+    class: opacity,
+    state: hover,
+    values: (
+      0: 0,
+      25: .25,
+      50: .5,
+      75: .75,
+      100: 1,
+    )
+  )
+);
+```

 ### Responsive utilities
 
 Add the `responsive` boolean to generate responsive utilities (e.g., `.opacity-md-25`) across [all breakpoints]({{< docsref "/layout/breakpoints" >}}).

-## Adding pseudo-classes to utilities

-With the `state` option, pseudo-class utilities can be generated:
