  <label class="form-check-label" for="defaultFlexCheckDefault">

  </label>
</div>

Disabled

Add the disabled attribute and the associated <label>s are automatically styled to match with a lighter color to help indicate the input’s state.

  <label class="form-check-label" for="flexCheckDisabled">

Switches

A switch has the markup of a custom checkbox but uses the .form-switch class to render a toggle switch. Switches also support the disabled attribute.

<div class="form-check form-switch">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="checkbox" id="flexSwitchCheckDefault">
  <label class="form-check-label" for="flexSwitchCheckDefault">Default switch checkbox input</label>
</div>
<div class="form-check form-switch">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="checkbox" id="flexSwitchCheckChecked" checked>
  <label class="form-check-label" for="flexSwitchCheckChecked">Checked switch checkbox input</label>
</div>
<div class="form-check form-switch">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="checkbox" id="flexSwitchCheckDisabled" disabled>
  <label class="form-check-label" for="flexSwitchCheckDisabled">Disabled switch checkbox input</label>
</div>
<div class="form-check form-switch">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="checkbox" id="flexSwitchCheckCheckedDisabled" checked disabled>
  <label class="form-check-label" for="flexSwitchCheckCheckedDisabled">Disabled checked switch checkbox input</label>
</div>

Inline

Group checkboxes or radios on the same horizontal row by adding .form-check-inline to any .form-check.

<div class="form-check form-check-inline">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="checkbox" id="inlineCheckbox1" value="option1">
  <label class="form-check-label" for="inlineCheckbox1">1</label>
</div>
<div class="form-check form-check-inline">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="checkbox" id="inlineCheckbox2" value="option2">
  <label class="form-check-label" for="inlineCheckbox2">2</label>
</div>
<div class="form-check form-check-inline">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="checkbox" id="inlineCheckbox3" value="option3" disabled>
  <label class="form-check-label" for="inlineCheckbox3">3 (disabled)</label>
</div>
<div class="form-check form-check-inline">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="inlineRadioOptions" id="inlineRadio1" value="option1">
  <label class="form-check-label" for="inlineRadio1">1</label>
</div>
<div class="form-check form-check-inline">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="inlineRadioOptions" id="inlineRadio2" value="option2">
  <label class="form-check-label" for="inlineRadio2">2</label>
</div>
<div class="form-check form-check-inline">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="inlineRadioOptions" id="inlineRadio3" value="option3" disabled>
  <label class="form-check-label" for="inlineRadio3">3 (disabled)</label>
</div>

Without labels

Omit the wrapping .form-check for checkboxes and radios that have no label text. Remember to still provide some form of accessible name for assistive technologies (for instance, using aria-label).

<div>
  <input class="form-check-input" type="checkbox" id="checkboxNoLabel" value="" aria-label="...">
</div>

<div>
  <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="radioNoLabel" id="radioNoLabel1" value="" aria-label="...">
</div>

Toggle buttons

Create button-like checkboxes and radio buttons by using .btn styles rather than .form-check-label on the <label> elements.
