How to use it :

1. To get started, include the boxed-check.min.css on the page.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/boxed-check.min.css" />

2. Create grouped toggle buttons from a series of checkboxes or radio buttons.

<!-- Radio Buttons -->
<div class="boxed-check-group">
    <label class="boxed-check">
      <input class="boxed-check-input" type="radio" name="radio-overview" checked>
      <div class="boxed-check-label">Normal</div>
    </label>
    <label class="boxed-check">
      <input class="boxed-check-input" type="radio" name="radio-overview">
      <div class="boxed-check-label">Normal</div>
    </label>
    <label class="boxed-check">
      <input class="boxed-check-input" type="radio" name="radio-overview" disabled>
      <div class="boxed-check-label">Disabled</div>
    </label>
</div>

<!-- Checkboxes -->
<div class="boxed-check-group">
  <label class="boxed-check">
      <input class="boxed-check-input" type="checkbox" name="checkbox-overview" checked>
      <div class="boxed-check-label">Normal</div>
  </label>
  <label class="boxed-check">
      <input class="boxed-check-input" type="checkbox" name="checkbox-overview">
      <div class="boxed-check-label">Normal</div>
  </label>
  <label class="boxed-check">
      <input class="boxed-check-input" type="checkbox" name="checkbox-overview" disabled>
      <div class="boxed-check-label">Disabled</div>
  </label>
</div>

<!-- Custom layout -->
<div class="boxed-check-group boxed-check-success">
  <label class="boxed-check">
    <input class="boxed-check-input" type="radio" name="radio-overview-custom" checked>
    <div class="boxed-check-label" style="text-align:center;">
      <h2>Breakfast</h2>
      <span>Good Morning</span>
    </div>
  </label>
  <label class="boxed-check">
    <input class="boxed-check-input" type="radio" name="radio-overview-custom">
    <div class="boxed-check-label text-center">
      <h2>Lunch</h2>
      <span>Good Afternoon</span>
    </div>
  </label>
  <label class="boxed-check">
    <input class="boxed-check-input" type="radio" name="radio-overview-custom">
    <div class="boxed-check-label text-center">
      <h2>Supper</h2>
      <span>Good Evening</span>
    </div>
  </label>
</div>

3. Apply additional styles to the toggle buttons.

• boxed-check-default
• boxed-check-secondary
• boxed-check-primary
• boxed-check-success
• boxed-check-danger
• boxed-check-warning
• boxed-check-info
• boxed-check-dark
• boxed-check-outline-default
• boxed-check-outline-secondary
• boxed-check-outline-primary
• boxed-check-outline-success
• boxed-check-outline-danger
• boxed-check-outline-warning
• boxed-check-outline-info
• boxed-check-outline-dark

<div class="boxed-check-group boxed-check-outline-default">
  ...
</div>

4. Set the size of the toggle buttons.

<div class="boxed-check-group boxed-check-default boxed-check-lg">
  ...
</div>
<div class="boxed-check-group boxed-check-default boxed-check-sm">
  ...
</div>

5. Make the toggle buttons displayed inline.

<label class="boxed-check boxed-check-inline">
  <input class="boxed-check-input" type="radio" name="radio-overview" checked>
  <div class="boxed-check-label">Normal</div>
</label>
