Radio Components

The radio component can be used to allow the user to choose a single option from one or more available options coded with the utility classes from Tailwind CSS and available in multiple styles, variants, and colors and support dark mode.

Radio examples

Default radio Checked state

<script>
	import { Radio, Label, Helper } from 'flowbite-svelte';
</script>

<Radio name="example">Default radio</Radio>
<Radio name="example" checked>Checked state</Radio>

Disabled state

Apply the disabled attribute to the radio component to disallow the selection for the user.

This example can be used for the disabled state of the radio component by applying the disabled attribute to the input element.

Disabled radio Disabled checked

<Radio name="disabled-state" disabled>Disabled radio</Radio>
<Radio name="disabled-state" disabled checked>Disabled checked</Radio>

Alternative syntax

If you need separate control over the label and the radio you can use the verbose syntax, but then you need to take care about aligning manually.

Left column	Right column
Default radio	Disabled radio

Label on the other side

  <Table>
    <TableHead>
      <TableHeadCell>Left column</TableHeadCell>
      <TableHeadCell>Right column</TableHeadCell>
    </TableHead>
    <TableBody class="divide-y">
      <TableBodyRow class="divide-x dark:divide-gray-700">
        <TableBodyCell><Label for="radio1">Default radio</Label></TableBodyCell>
        <TableBodyCell><Label for="radio2">Disabled radio</Label></TableBodyCell>
      </TableBodyRow>
      <TableBodyRow class="divide-x dark:divide-gray-700">
        <TableBodyCell><Radio name="separate" id="radio1" /></TableBodyCell>
        <TableBodyCell><Radio name="separate" id="radio2" disabled/></TableBodyCell>
      </TableBodyRow>
    </TableBody>
  </Table>

  <Label color='red' class="mt-4 flex items-center font-bold italic">
    Label on the other side <Checkbox class="ml-2"/>
  </Label>

Radio with a link

Use this example if you want to add an anchor link inside the label of the radio component.

I agree with the terms and conditions.

<Radio name="with-link">
	I agree with the
	<a href="/" class="text-blue-600 dark:text-blue-500 hover:underline ml-1">terms and conditions</a>.
</Radio>

Helper text

Get started with this example if you want to add a secondary helper text for the radio component.

  <Radio aria-describedby="helper-checkbox-text">Free shipping via Flowbite</Radio>

Some helpful instruction goes over here.
Non profit

<Dropdown label="Dropdown radio" class="w-60" >
  <ul slot="content" class="p-3">
    <DropdownItem class="rounded" liClass="p-2 hover:bg-gray-100 dark:hover:bg-gray-600">
      <Radio name="dropdown" value={1} tinted>Individual</Radio>
      <Helper class="pl-6 -mt-1">Some helpful instruction goes over here.</Helper>
    </DropdownItem>
    <DropdownItem class="rounded" liClass="p-2 hover:bg-gray-100 dark:hover:bg-gray-600">
      <Radio name="dropdown" value={2} tinted>Company</Radio>
      <Helper class="pl-6 -mt-1">Some helpful instruction goes over here.</Helper>
    </DropdownItem>
    <DropdownItem class="rounded" liClass="p-2 hover:bg-gray-100 dark:hover:bg-gray-600">

      <Helper class="pl-6 -mt-1">Some helpful instruction goes over here.</Helper>
    </DropdownItem>
  </ul>
</Dropdown>

Inline layout

You can align the radio elements horizontally by using a wrapper tag and applying the flex class.

Inline 1 Inline 2 Inline checked Inline disabled

You can use the property inline as the alternative.

Inline 1 Inline 2 Inline checked Inline disabled

<div class="flex gap-3">
	<Radio name="inline1">Inline 1</Radio>
	<Radio name="inline1">Inline 2</Radio>
	<Radio name="inline1" checked>Inline checked</Radio>
	<Radio name="inline1" disabled>Inline disabled</Radio>
</div>

<Radio name="inline2" inline class="mr-2">Inline 1</Radio>
<Radio name="inline2" inline class="mr-2">Inline 2</Radio>
<Radio name="inline2" inline class="mr-2" checked>Inline checked</Radio>
<Radio name="inline2" inline class="mr-2" disabled>Inline disabled</Radio>

Colors

<script>
  let colors;
</script>
<p class="mb-4 font-semibold text-gray-900 dark:text-white {colors}">Select color</p>
<div class="flex">
	<Radio bind:group={colors} color="red">Red</Radio>
	<Radio bind:group={colors} color="green">Green</Radio>
