- When a control should match an 8-bit, pixel-art, or retro game interface.
- Use the outline variant when the toggle needs a more prominent framed appearance.

PropTypeDefaultDescription
font"normal" | "retro"—Selects the font style. When omitted or set to `retro`, the component applies the `retro` class; `normal` does not. The retro stylesheet uses Press Start 2P.
variant"default" | "outline"—Passed to the underlying shadcn Toggle. When set to `outline`, also renders decorative horizontal and vertical border overlays.
size"default" | "sm" | "lg"—Passed to the underlying shadcn Toggle to select its size.
classNamestring—An additional CSS class merged with the component's styling.
childrenReact.ReactNode—Content rendered inside the toggle.
Radix Toggle Root propsReact.ComponentPropsWithoutRef<typeof TogglePrimitive.Root>—All other Radix Toggle Root props are supported, including its pressed-state, disabled, and accessibility props.
Accessibility
- Radix Toggle Root provides button semantics and exposes its pressed state to assistive technology.
- Provide an accessible name using visible text or an `aria-label`, particularly when the toggle has no visible text.
- Use `pressed` and `onPressedChange` for controlled state, or `defaultPressed` for uncontrolled state; do not communicate the state using color alone.
