Input
The checkbox is placed inside a label. So when clicking on the label, the checkbox will be checked even though it's hidden.
#HTML
index.html
<label class="switch switch--on">
<input type="checkbox" class="switch__input" />
<!-- Circle -->
<div class="switch__circle"></div>
</label>
<label class="switch switch--off">
<input type="checkbox" class="switch__input" />
<!-- Circle -->
<div class="switch__circle"></div>
</label>
#CSS
styles.css
.switch {
display: flex;
/* Rounded border */
border-radius: 9999px;
/* Size */
height: 2rem;
width: 4rem;
/* Demo */
margin-bottom: 0.5rem;
}
.switch__input {
/* Hide the input */
display: none;
}
.switch__circle {
/* Rounded border */
border-radius: 9999px;
/* Size */
width: 2rem;
background-color: #fff;
}
The switch comes with two variants:
css
/* ON status */
.switch--on {
background-color: #357edd;
border: 1px solid #357edd;
/* Push the circle to the right */
justify-content: flex-end;
}
/* OFF status */
.switch--off {
background-color: #d1d5db;
border: 1px solid #d1d5db;
}
.switch--off .switch__circle {
border: 1px solid #d1d5db;
}
