Getting Started with React ToggleButton Component

Smart UI React targets React 18+ and current Node LTS for tooling; use TypeScript templates when you want typed props and events.

Demo source (Smart UI repo): react/source/togglebutton/basic/App.jsx

1 Create a Vite + React + TypeScript app

  1. npm create vite@latest my-smart-app -- --template react-ts
  2. cd my-smart-app
    then 
    npm install

2 Install Smart UI for React

npm install smart-webcomponents-react

3 Import styles and render the component

Open src/App.tsx (or App.jsx if you chose JavaScript). The snippet below matches Smart UI React demos for this widget:

import 'smart-webcomponents-react/source/styles/smart.default.css';
import './App.css';
import React from "react";
import { ToggleButton } from 'smart-webcomponents-react/button';

const App = () => {

  // If you need to run any init logic, you can use useEffect here
  React.useEffect(() => {
    // init logic here if needed
  }, []);

  return (
    <div>
      <div className="demo-horizontal-layout">
        <div>
          <div className="demo-buttons-group">
            <ToggleButton className="primary">Toggle Button</ToggleButton>
            <ToggleButton className="primary raised">Raised Toggle Button</ToggleButton>
            <ToggleButton className="primary outlined">Outlined Toggle Button</ToggleButton>
            <ToggleButton className="primary flat">Flat Toggle Button</ToggleButton>
            <ToggleButton className="primary floating">
              <span className="glyphicon glyphicon-cloud"></span>
            </ToggleButton>
          </div>
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
  );
};

export default App;

4 Run the dev server

npm run dev

Open the URL Vite prints (often http://localhost:5173/).

Alternative: Next.js

Create an app with npx create-next-app@latest (Pages Router or App Router). Install the same package (npm install smart-webcomponents-react), then reuse the imports and default export from step 3 in pages/_app.tsx, the App Router root app/layout.tsx, or your top-level layout component so styles and the widget tree load once.

TypeScript Support

Types ship with smart-webcomponents-react. Import the component and prop types:

import type { ToggleButton, ToggleButtonProps } from 'smart-webcomponents-react/togglebutton';

The generated wrappers expose on* callbacks (for example onChange) whose arguments are standard DOM Event values unless the widget typings narrow them further.

Accessibility

The ToggleButton component follows WAI-ARIA best practices:

  • Keyboard navigation - Tab, Arrow keys, Enter, and Escape are supported
  • ARIA roles - Appropriate roles and labels are applied automatically
  • Focus management - Visible focus indicators for keyboard users
  • Screen readers - State changes are announced to assistive technology
  • High contrast - Supports Windows High Contrast Mode and forced colors

For custom labeling, set aria-label or aria-labelledby attributes on the component.

Live demos

Supported stacks: Smart UI targets Angular 17+, React 18+, Vue 3+, Node 18 LTS, and evergreen browsers; pin exact package versions to your org policy.
