Whether you're building a settings panel, theme toggler, or preference controller, the Shadcn React Switch integrates seamlessly into any project for a polished and responsive interface.

What is Shadcn Switch?

The Shadcn Switch is a toggle-style UI component used to switch between two states, typically used for binary options (on/off, yes/no).

It includes a label, a handle that slides or toggles between two positions, and a container that can be styled or customized according to your needs.

With React and Tailwind CSS, the component can be styled in any way you like, and it provides support for different sizes, animations, and visual styles.

Why Use Shadcn Switch?

  • Accessible by Design: The Shadcn Switch follows best practices for accessibility, including proper ARIA roles and keyboard navigation support.
  • Customizable Styles: Fully customizable in terms of color, size, positioning, and interaction using Tailwind CSS utilities.
  • Interactive & Smooth Animations: Use built-in animations for toggling, ensuring a smooth user experience during state transitions.
  • Lightweight & Performance-Oriented: Built for performance, ensuring smooth interactions with minimal overhead.
  • Perfect for Settings & Toggles: Ideal for binary choices such as enabling/disabling settings, toggling themes, or switching modes.

Features:

  • Customizable Sizes and States: Control the size, color, and animation of the switch handle, track, and feedback.
  • Built-In Accessibility: Includes proper ARIA roles like aria-checked, aria-labelledby, and aria-describedby to ensure screen readers interpret the switch correctly.
  • Keyboard Navigation: Supports keyboard interactions (e.g., space/enter to toggle, arrow keys for navigation).
  • Smooth Transitions: Built-in transitions ensure a smooth slide or toggle effect when the switch changes states.
  • Support for Disabled State: You can disable the switch, making it non-interactive and styled accordingly.
  • Icon Support: Add icons to the switch handle or labels for better visual cues (e.g., a sun/moon icon for theme toggles).

Production Tips:

  • Use for Binary Settings: The Shadcn Switch is perfect for simple binary actions, such as toggling between light/dark modes, enabling/disabling settings, or switching between multiple modes.
  • Labeling and Instructions: Always label the switch with clear, concise text (e.g., "Enable Notifications," "Dark Mode") to avoid ambiguity for users.
  • Visual Feedback: Consider using Shadcn Badge or Shadcn Tooltip to show additional context or status updates when the switch is toggled.
  • Keyboard and Screen Reader Accessibility: Ensure the switch is fully accessible by including proper ARIA attributes, and support keyboard navigation for users who cannot use a mouse.
  • Use Disabled State Carefully: Provide clear visual feedback when the switch is disabled to avoid confusion. Make sure disabled switches cannot be interacted with or clicked.
  • Consistent Design: Use consistent color schemes and sizes throughout the application for a uniform experience, especially for switches that perform similar actions.
  • Mobile Optimization: Ensure that switches are large enough for easy touch interaction on mobile devices. Use Tailwind's responsive utilities to ensure the switch remains usable on different screen sizes.

Integration With Other Components

The Shadcn Switch integrates seamlessly across the Shadcn UI ecosystem — including shadcn/ui compatible components — to build cohesive, interactive experiences.

Pair the Shadcn Switch with Shadcn Button for toggling features like theme modes, preferences, or activation states. Use Shadcn Tooltip to describe what the switch controls (e.g., "Enable notifications"), improving usability and accessibility.

Combine it with Shadcn Form for boolean input handling, or use it inside Shadcn Card and Shadcn Table components to toggle filtering, sorting, or visibility of data rows. You can also link it with Shadcn Select for dynamic configuration changes or open contextual modals via Shadcn Dialog.
