Measured entry

ruixen-checkbox-tree

selectunclassifiedmotion on file

A client-side React and TypeScript checkbox tree shipped as a shadcn registry file. It supports controlled or uncontrolled selection, recursively toggles descendants, and animates branch disclosure. It relies on Tailwind utility classes, Motion, and a local cn helper backed by clsx and tailwind-merge.

Verdict

A compact fit for modest nested selectors, with clear selection behavior and working responsive rendering. It needs a shadcn-style setup to mount, and the unnamed disclosure controls plus visual-only mixed state should be fixed before production use.

Use it if

  • You need nested checkbox selection where choosing a branch should include all of its descendants.
  • Your React app already uses Tailwind and a shadcn-style source-copy workflow.
  • You want controlled selection through a value array and a change callback, or a simple uncontrolled default.

Skip it if

  • You need production-ready accessibility without modifying the component, since the disclosure buttons have no accessible names and mixed checkbox state is only visual.
  • You need externally controlled expansion, lazy-loaded branches, or virtualization for a large tree.
  • You want a dependency-light static tree and do not need animated disclosure.

In a non-shadcn project, add Tailwind styling, install Motion, clsx, and tailwind-merge, configure the at-sign source alias, and provide a lib/utils module exporting cn. Add accessible names to disclosure buttons and expose mixed checkbox state to assistive technology.
