Vue Checkbox Component

Create consistent cross-browser and cross-device checkboxes with our Vue checkbox components.

Other frameworks

CoreUI components are available as native Angular, Bootstrap (Vanilla JS), and React components. To learn more please visit the following pages.

Approach

Browser default checkboxes are replaced with the help of <CFormCheck>. Checkboxes are for selecting one or several options in a list.

Checks

<CFormCheck id="flexCheckDefault" label="Default checkbox"/>
<CFormCheck id="flexCheckChecked" label="Checked checkbox" checked />

Indeterminate

Checkboxes can utilize the :indeterminate pseudo-class when manually set via indeterminate property.

<CFormCheck id="flexCheckIndeterminate" label="Indeterminate checkbox" indeterminate />

Disabled

Add the disabled attribute and the associated <label>s are automatically styled to match with a lighter color to help indicate the input's state.

<CFormCheck label="Disabled checkbox" disabled/>
<CFormCheck label="Disabled checked checkbox" checked disabled/>

Default (stacked)

By default, any number of checkboxes that are immediate sibling will be vertically stacked and appropriately spaced.

<CFormCheck id="defaultCheck1" label="Default checkbox"/>
<CFormCheck id="defaultCheck2" label="Disabled checkbox" disabled/>

Inline

Group checkboxes on the same horizontal row by adding inline boolean property to any <CFormCheck>.

<CFormCheck inline id="inlineCheckbox1" value="option1" label="1"/>
<CFormCheck inline id="inlineCheckbox2" value="option2" label="2"/>
<CFormCheck inline id="inlineCheckbox3" value="option3" label="3 (disabled)" disabled/>

Reverse

Put your checkboxes on the opposite side by adding reverse boolean property.

<CFormCheck reverse id="reverseCheckbox1" value="option1" label="Reverse checkbox"/>
<CFormCheck reverse id="reverseCheckbox2" value="option2" label="Disabled reverse checkbox" disabled/>

Without labels

Remember to still provide some form of accessible name for assistive technologies (for instance, using aria-label).

<CFormCheck id="checkboxNoLabel" value="" aria-label="..."/>

Toggle buttons

Create button-like checkboxes buttons by using button boolean property on the <CFormCheck> component. These toggle buttons can further be grouped in a button group if needed.

<CFormCheck :button="{ color: 'primary' }" id="btn-check" autocomplete="off" label="Single toggle"/>
<CFormCheck :button="{ color: 'primary' }" id="btn-check-2" autocomplete="off" label="Checked" checked/>
<CFormCheck :button="{ color: 'primary' }" id="btn-check-3" autocomplete="off" label="Disabled" disabled/>

Outlined styles

Different variants of button, such at the various outlined styles, are supported.

<CFormCheck :button="{ color: 'primary', variant: 'outline' }" id="btn-check-outlined" autocomplete="off" label="Single toggle"/>
<CFormCheck :button="{ color: 'secondary', variant: 'outline' }" id="btn-check-2-outlined" autocomplete="off" label="Checked" checked/>
