<Checkbox>
npm i @accessible/checkbox
An accessible checkbox component for React. This library allows you to create
your own a checkbox with your own styles while maintaining the ability to
focus and update a checkbox input with the keyboard.
## Quick Start
[Check out the example on **CodeSandbox**](https://codesandbox.io/s/accessiblecheckbox-examples-epc8b)
```jsx harmony
import {Checkbox, Checkmark} from '@accessible/checkbox'
const MyCheckbox = () => (
Check me!
)
```
## API
### <Checkbox>
Creates a visually hidden checkbox input that is focusable and accessible via keyboard navigation.
All props passed to this component are applied to the ``. This also creates a context
provider enabling the other components in this library to access the checkbox's state
deep in the tree.
#### Props
| Prop | Type | Default | Required? | Description |
| -------------- | --------------------------- | ----------- | --------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| checked | `boolean` | `undefined` | No | Makes the checkbox a controlled component which can no longer be updated with `check`, `uncheck`, and `toggle` controls. |
| defaultChecked | `boolean` | `undefined` | No | Set this to `true` to make the checkbox `checked` by default. |
| onChange | `(checked: boolean) => any` | `undefined` | No | Called each time the `checked` state changes. |
| children | `React.ReactNode` | `undefined` | No | Your custom styled checkbox. |
### <Checkmark>

interface CheckboxContextValue {
// Does the checkbox have a `checked` property?
checked: boolean
// Is the checkbox currently focused?
focused: boolean
// Is the checkbox currently disabled?

check: () => void
// Unchecks the checkbox
uncheck: () => void
