Mastering AlpineJS in a Day or Less

## Challenge yourself
Convert the following component to a reusable AlpineJS component using `Alpine.data`. Name the component `collapsible` and maintain all elements, properties, and methods.
```
<div x-data="{
  open: true, 
  get isOpen() { return this.open },
  toggle() {
    this.open = !this.open;
  }}">
  <h4 @click="toggle">Toggle</h4>
  <p x-show="isOpen">
    I am collapsible
  </p>
</div>
```

> **Note**: Put the reusable `Alpine.data` component definition into the "**JavaScript**" tab.
