Measured entry

clay-checkbox

checkboxclaymorphismfirst party

A single-file React checkbox that ships as a default JSX export with controlled and uncontrolled state support. It uses a native checkbox hidden behind a clay-styled visual control, depends on React for state, and expects Tailwind CSS to supply its utility, peer-state, focus, and arbitrary-value styles.

Verdict

A dependable, accessible choice for playful Tailwind interfaces: it builds and mounts cleanly, adapts without overflow, and reports no automated accessibility violations. The main tradeoff is a narrow API and heavily hard-coded visual treatment.

Use it if

  • You want a playful clay-style checkbox for a Tailwind-based React interface.
  • You need the option to manage checked state internally or from a parent component.
  • You want a native labeled input with visible keyboard focus and disabled-state styling.

Skip it if

  • Your project does not use Tailwind and you do not want to recreate the utility-driven styling.
  • Your design system forbids hard-coded colors, shadows, radii, or typography weights.
  • You need an indeterminate state or direct support for input attributes such as name, value, or required.
  • Your form abstractions expect the standard React change event instead of a boolean-first callback.

First-party component from the sir-originals set. In a non-shadcn React project, add Tailwind CSS and ensure it scans this JSX file so the peer, focus-visible, screen-reader, transition, and arbitrary-value utilities are generated. Copy the component directly; no provider or shadcn scaffolding is required.
