## Description

This project is a CSS-based library that provides custom visual themes for standard checkbox and radio button inputs. It functions as an extension for the Bootstrap framework, allowing developers to enhance the appearance of selection controls while maintaining native input functionality without the need for additional JavaScript logic.

The library distinguishes itself by utilizing pure CSS techniques to manage visual states and component aesthetics. It employs a hidden-input-overlay pattern and state-driven selectors to ensure that custom designs respond automatically to native browser states such as checked, disabled, or indeterminate. By leveraging pseudo-elements and icon-font integration, the project enables the injection of vector glyphs and custom shapes directly into the document flow.

The styling capabilities cover a broad range of design requirements, including the application of brand-specific color palettes and geometric adjustments like corner radii. Users can configure these components to support various layouts, including inline arrangements, and replace default icon sets with custom font libraries to align with specific project branding needs.
