Create a Toggle Switch in React as a Reusable Component
In this article, we're going to create an iOS-inspired toggle switch using React components. By the end, we'll have built a simple demo React App that uses our custom toggle switch component. We could use third-party libraries for this, but building from scratch allows us to better understand how our code is working and allows us to customize our component completely. Forms provide a major means for enabling user interactions. The checkbox is traditionally used for collecting binary data — such as yes or no , true or false , enable or disable , on or off , etc. Although some modern interface designs steer away from form fields when creating toggle switches, I'll stick with them here due to their greater accessibility.
