Usage

usage.tsx
import {  Choicebox,  ChoiceboxIndicator,  ChoiceboxItem,  ChoiceboxItemDescription,  ChoiceboxItemHeader,  ChoiceboxItemSubtitle,  ChoiceboxItemTitle,} from "@/components/kibo-ui/choicebox";<Choicebox defaultValue="standard" aria-label="Shipping method">  <ChoiceboxItem value="standard" id="standard">    <ChoiceboxIndicator id="standard" />    <ChoiceboxItemHeader>      <ChoiceboxItemTitle>Standard shipping</ChoiceboxItemTitle>      <ChoiceboxItemSubtitle>Arrives in 3–5 business days</ChoiceboxItemSubtitle>      <ChoiceboxItemDescription>No additional cost</ChoiceboxItemDescription>    </ChoiceboxItemHeader>  </ChoiceboxItem></Choicebox>
  • Use for mutually exclusive options that need more context than a plain radio label.
  • Use when each option should present a title, optional subtitle, and optional description in a card-like layout.
  • Use for settings, plans, delivery methods, payment methods, or other single-selection choices.
  • Use ChoiceboxItemDescription when an option needs Field-level supporting or validation text.

API reference

PropTypeDefaultDescription
ChoiceboxComponentProps<typeof RadioGroup>—Full-width wrapper around RadioGroup. Accepts all RadioGroup props, including value, defaultValue, onValueChange, name, orientation, and className; the source prepends the w-full class.
ChoiceboxItemComponentProps<typeof RadioGroupItem>—Provides the labeled horizontal Field container and item context. Its declared type includes all RadioGroupItem props, but the implementation consumes only className, children, value, and id; it does not render a RadioGroupItem itself.
ChoiceboxItemHeaderComponentProps<typeof FieldContent>—Wrapper for an item's title, subtitle, and description content. Forwards all FieldContent props and className.
ChoiceboxItemTitleComponentProps<typeof FieldTitle>—Item title component. Forwards all FieldTitle props and className.
ChoiceboxItemSubtitleHTMLAttributes<HTMLSpanElement>—A span for secondary item text. Applies font-normal text-muted-foreground text-xs and merges the supplied className.
ChoiceboxItemDescriptionComponentProps<typeof FieldDescription>—Item description component. Forwards all FieldDescription props and className.
ChoiceboxIndicatorPartial<ComponentProps<typeof RadioGroupItem>>—Renders the RadioGroupItem for the surrounding ChoiceboxItem. It reads the parent item's value from context and always supplies that value, while forwarding the supplied RadioGroupItem props.

Accessibility

  • Choicebox is built on RadioGroup, so options are mutually exclusive and inherit its keyboard and selection semantics.
  • ChoiceboxItem wraps its Field in FieldLabel with htmlFor set to the item's id, making the row labelable when the same id is applied to the rendered ChoiceboxIndicator.
  • Because ChoiceboxItem does not render the radio control, every item must include a ChoiceboxIndicator.
  • Pass the same stable id to ChoiceboxItem and ChoiceboxIndicator so the FieldLabel association works correctly.
  • Provide an accessible name through a visible label, aria-label, or aria-labelledby on Choicebox, and use descriptive visible titles for each option.
  • ChoiceboxIndicator must be rendered inside ChoiceboxItem; otherwise its internal context lookup throws an error.
