Basic checkbox supporting controlled and uncontrolled modes.

Uncontrolled Native

"use client";

import { Checkbox } from "@/ui";

  return (
    <div className="flex flex-col gap-4">
      <Checkbox defaultChecked>Uncontrolled Native</Checkbox>
    </div>
  );
}

Disabled

Set disabled on a single checkbox.

Disabled

"use client";

import { Checkbox } from "@/ui";

export default function CheckboxDisabledDemo() {
  return <Checkbox disabled>Disabled</Checkbox>;
}

Group Controlled Mode

Data-driven group mode with select-all / indeterminate states.

All

ControlledGroupCustom-Indicator

"use client";

import { useState } from "react";
import { Checkbox } from "@/ui";
import { Check, Minus } from "lucide-react";

export default function Demo() {
  const [values, setValues] = useState(["Controlled"]);
  const allValues = ["Controlled", "Group", "Custom"];
  const allChecked = allValues.every((v) => values.includes(v));
  const indeterminate = !allChecked && values.length > 0;
  return (
    <div className="flex flex-col gap-4">
      <Checkbox
        checked={values.length > 0}
        indicator={indeterminate ? <Minus /> : allChecked ? <Check /> : null}
        onClick={() => {
          setValues(allChecked ? [] : allValues);
        }}
      >
        All
      </Checkbox>
      <Checkbox.Group
        value={values}
        onChange={setValues}
        className="pl-4"
        options={[
          {
            label: "Controlled",
            value: "Controlled",
            indicator: <Check />,
          },
          {
            label: "Group",
            value: "Group",
            indicator: <Check />,
          },
          {
            label: "Custom-Indicator",
            value: "Custom",
            indicator: <Check />,
          },
        ]}
      />
    </div>
  );
}

Custom

Build a select-all group with the composable components; nest CheckboxRoot inside CheckboxIndicator — it also toggles on Enter, so popover-hosted groups work from the keyboard.

ControlledGroupCustom

"use client";
import { useState } from "react";
import { CheckboxLabel, CheckboxRoot, CheckboxIndicator } from "@/ui";
import { Check, Minus } from "lucide-react";

const ALL_VALUES = ["Controlled", "Group", "Custom"];

export default function Demo() {
  const [values, setValues] = useState<string[]>([]);
  const allChecked = ALL_VALUES.every((v) => values.includes(v));
  const indeterminate = !allChecked && values.length > 0;

  const toggleAll = () => setValues(allChecked ? [] : ALL_VALUES);
  const toggleItem = (val: string) =>
    setValues((prev) =>
      prev.includes(val) ? prev.filter((v) => v !== val) : [...prev, val],
    );

  return (
    <div className="flex flex-col gap-4">
      <CheckboxLabel>
        <CheckboxIndicator>
          <CheckboxRoot checked={values.length > 0} onChange={toggleAll} />
          {indeterminate ? <Minus /> : <Check />}
        </CheckboxIndicator>
        <span>All</span>
      </CheckboxLabel>
      <div className="flex flex-col gap-2 pl-4">
        {ALL_VALUES.map((val) => (
          <CheckboxLabel key={val}>
            <CheckboxIndicator>
              <CheckboxRoot
                checked={values.includes(val)}
                onChange={() => toggleItem(val)}
              />
              <Check />
            </CheckboxIndicator>
            <span>{val}</span>
          </CheckboxLabel>
        ))}
      </div>
    </div>
  );
}

`className`	`ClassNameValue`	-	Custom CSS class
`...props`	`React.ComponentProps<"input">`	-	Supports all native input props (except `type`, `className`, `value`)

Prop	Type	Default	Description
`className`	`ClassNameValue`	-	Custom CSS class
`children`	`React.ReactNode`	-	Indicator content, defaults to a check icon in the composite
`...props`	`React.ComponentProps<"span">`	-	Supports all native span props
