React Selected

React component to build flexible and accessible radio buttons/elements.

Listen to Belinda Carlisle - Summer Rain while reading these docs - it will increase comprehensibility by 120%. This will increase it by 420%.

Why should I use this?

React Selected has control over select logic and state meaning that you don't have to do much! It also has the ability to add WAI-ARIA compliant and other accessibility attributes to the selectable elements.

Install

npm install react-selected

Example

import Selected from 'react-selected';

<Selected defaultSelectedKey="cat">
  {({ getSelectableProps, selectedKey }) => (
    <Buttons>
      <Button color={selectedKey === 'dog' ? 'info' : null} {...getSelectableProps('dog')}>
        Dog
      </Button>
      <Button color={selectedKey === 'cat' ? 'info' : null} {...getSelectableProps('cat')}>
        Cat
      </Button>
      <Button color={selectedKey === 'mouse' ? 'info' : null} {...getSelectableProps('mouse')}>
        Mouse
      </Button>
    </Buttons>
  )}
</Selected>
