CheckboxList

Purpose

The CheckboxList is a reuseable, aria-compliant list of checkboxes. Wedgekit uses CheckboxList in the SwitchGroup from '@wedgekit/switch-group' and the Multiselect from '@wedgekit/select'.

Basic Implementation

import CheckboxList, { Option } from '@wedgekit/checkbox-list';

const Example = () => {
  const [value, setValue] = React.useState([]);

  return (
    <CheckboxList
      label="My CheckboxList"
      options={[
        { label: 'Option 1', id: 'Option1' },
        { label: 'Option 2', id: 'Option2' },
        { label: 'Option 3', id: 'Option3' },
      ]}
      value={value}
      onChange={setValue}
    />
  );
};

render(<Example />);
