Checkbox Component
The Checkbox component is a fully customizable React component styled with Tailwind CSS utility classes. It replaces the default browser checkbox with visually enhanced variants—such as square, rounded, and circular—selectable via a dropdown menu. The component maintains native checkbox functionality, integrates seamlessly with forms and UI libraries, and supports accessibility standards for a consistent user experience across devices.
