Methods

Method: Radio

Description: The Radio component is a functional component, rendering a radio button input element.

Parameters:

  • className (string): A custom CSS class name to apply to the radio button container.
  • children (node): The child elements to be rendered inside the radio button container.
  • name (string): The name attribute of the input element, used to group radio buttons together. Required.
  • value (string): The value attribute of the input element, representing the data associated with this specific radio button.
  • disabled (bool): Whether the radio button should be disabled.
  • checked (bool): Whether the radio button should be checked by default.
  • ...props (object): Additional props to be passed to the input element, like id, style, etc.

Returns:

  • JSX.Element: A rendered radio button input element.

Example:

import Radio from "./Radio";

// Basic radio button with a label
<Radio name="favoriteColor" value="blue">Blue</Radio>

// Radio button with custom className and disabled state
<Radio className="custom-radio" name="favoriteColor" value="green" disabled />

Considerations:

  • The name prop is essential for grouping radio buttons. All radio buttons with the same name belong to the same group, and only one can be selected at a time.
  • For visual styling, consider using a CSS framework or custom styles to ensure a consistent look across different radio buttons.
  • To provide accessibility, consider using the id prop and associating it with the for attribute of a label element.
