Example

use maud::html;
use maud_ui::primitives::switch;

// Default switch with label
html! {
    (switch::render(switch::Props {
        name: "notifications".to_string(),
        id: "sw-notifications".to_string(),
        label: "Enable notifications".to_string(),
        checked: true,
        ..Default::default()
    }))
}

// Switch with external label (no label prop)
html! {
    div style="display:flex;align-items:center;justify-content:space-between;" {
        div {
            label for="sw-marketing" style="font-weight:500;" {
                "Marketing emails"
            }
            span style="font-size:0.875rem;color:var(--mui-text-muted);" {
                "Receive emails about new products."
            }
        }
        (switch::render(switch::Props {
            name: "marketing".to_string(),
            id: "sw-marketing".to_string(),
            label: String::new(),
            checked: false,
            aria_label: Some("Marketing emails".to_string()),
            ..Default::default()
        }))
    }
}

// Disabled switch
html! {
    (switch::render(switch::Props {
        name: "airplane".to_string(),
        id: "sw-airplane".to_string(),
        label: "Airplane mode".to_string(),
        checked: false,
        disabled: true,
        ..Default::default()
    }))
}

// Compact size variant
html! {
    (switch::render(switch::Props {
        name: "compact".to_string(),
        id: "sw-compact".to_string(),
        label: "Compact mode".to_string(),
        checked: false,
        size: switch::Size::Sm,
        ..Default::default()
    }))
}

// Form integration — required + aria-invalid
html! {
    (switch::render(switch::Props {
        name: "terms".to_string(),
        id: "sw-terms".to_string(),
        label: "I agree to the terms".to_string(),
        checked: false,
        required: true,
        ..Default::default()
    }))
    (switch::render(switch::Props {
        name: "consent".to_string(),
        id: "sw-consent".to_string(),
        label: "Data consent".to_string(),
        checked: false,
        aria_invalid: true,
        ..Default::default()
    }))
}

Size Enum

Structure

The switch renders as a compound element:

• Button (<button role="switch">): interactive toggle with aria-checked and data-mui="switch".
• Thumb (<span class="mui-switch__thumb">): animated visual indicator inside the button.
• Hidden input (<input type="hidden">): reflects the checked state as value="true" or value="false". Carries aria-invalid and required attributes for form integration.
• Label (<label for="...">): external label element (only rendered if label is not empty).

CSS Classes

Behaviour

The companion JS behaviour (dist/behaviors/switch.js) handles:

• Toggling aria-checked and the hidden input's value on click.
• Keyboard interaction (Space / Enter to toggle).
• Optional DOM sync (e.g., updating related UI when the switch changes).

Form Integration

The hidden input always reflects the checked state as value="true" or "false". When the form is submitted:

<input type="hidden" name="notifications" value="true" />

Form libraries can read and mutate this value directly. The required and aria-invalid attributes propagate to the hidden input, so client-side form validation can treat it like any other input.
