Measured entry
ruixen-checkbox-group
selectunclassifiedmotion on file
A client-side React checkbox group distributed as a shadcn registry source file. It supports controlled or internal selection, optional descriptions, disabled choices, horizontal or vertical layout, and animated checkmarks. It depends on Tailwind CSS, Motion, and a shadcn-style cn utility backed by clsx and tailwind-merge.

What the harness recorded
BARE BUILD
✗ Build failed in 9m 11s error during build: [vite:load-fallback] Could not load <sandbox>/src/lib/utils (imported by src/cut/components/ruixen/checkbox-group.tsx): ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '<sandbox>/src/lib/utils'
Verdict
A solid fit for an animated multi-select in an existing design system, with native inputs preserving core checkbox behavior. It needs a shadcn-style setup to work as shipped, and teams should fix its collision-prone IDs when repeated values can appear across groups.
Use it if
- You need a multi-select field that can be controlled by form state or manage its own selection.
- Your choices benefit from descriptions, disabled states, and a choice of horizontal or vertical layout.
- Your Tailwind interface already uses Motion and you want animated checkmark feedback.
Skip it if
- You are keeping interaction code lean and do not want Motion for a checkbox animation.
- You will render several groups with repeated option values and cannot patch the generated input IDs to avoid collisions.
- You need built-in fieldset and legend semantics, validation messaging, or required-group behavior.
Install
| Declared dependencies | motion, clsx, tailwind-merge |
|---|---|
| Missing on install | none |
| Bare install | fails once the shadcn-style helpers are removed, so it needs that setup |
| Provider | no provider required in the harness |
In a non-shadcn project, add Tailwind CSS, Motion, clsx, and tailwind-merge. Create a cn helper that combines clsx with tailwind-merge and either configure the @ alias for the expected lib path or replace that import with your local utility path.
