Switch

The switch component provides a clear way for users to toggle options or settings on and off. Use switch for binary controls that take effect immediately, like enabling features, activating settings, or controlling visibility.

Switches provide instant visual feedback and are ideal for settings that don't require a save action to apply changes. For selections that require explicit submission, use checkbox instead.
