## Summary

A step-by-step guide to creating interactive checkbox components in Figma. Covers checkbox states (unchecked, checked, hover, disabled, indeterminate), how to use variants to manage those states, setting up prototype interactions for toggle behavior, and using Figma variables and Boolean properties to control label visibility and size. Also includes best practices for accessible, scalable checkbox design and a mention of Shadcn Studio for ready-made components.
