Code Explanation

HTML Code

Container:
<div class="container">
  • This <div> element serves as a container for the checkbox inputs and labels.
  • It has a class attribute set to "container", which can be used for styling or JavaScript interactions.
Checkbox Inputs:
<div class="check">
  <input id="box1" type="checkbox" checked />
  <label for="box1">Checked</label>
</div>
<div class="check">
  <input id="box2" type="checkbox" />
  <label for="box2">Unchecked</label>
</div>
<div class="check">
  <input id="box3" type="checkbox" disabled />
  <label for="box3">Disabled</label>
</div>
  • These <div> elements with the class "check" represent each checkbox input with its label.
  • Each checkbox input is nested inside a <div> element with the class "check".
  • The first checkbox is checked by default (checked attribute).
  • The second checkbox is unchecked by default.
  • The third checkbox is disabled (disabled attribute), meaning it cannot be interacted with.
Labels:
  • Each checkbox input is associated with its corresponding <label> element using the for attribute.
  • The for attribute of the <label> elements matches the id attribute of the corresponding checkbox inputs.
  • This association allows users to click on the label text to toggle the associated checkbox.

CSS Code

Font Awesome Import:
@import url(//netdna.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/3.2.1/css/font-awesome.css);
  • This imports the Font Awesome library from the specified URL. Font Awesome provides a collection of scalable vector icons that can be used for various purposes in web design.
Container Styles:
.container {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  font-size: 25px;
}
  • .container: Targets the <div> element with the class "container".
  • display: flex;: Sets the container to use flexbox layout, enabling flexible arrangement of its child elements.
  • flex-direction: column;: Specifies that the child elements should be stacked vertically within the container.
  • font-size: 25px;: Sets the font size of text content within the container to 25 pixels.
Check Styles:
.check {
  margin-bottom: 10px;
}
  • .check: Targets the <div> elements with the class "check", which wrap each checkbox input and its label.
  • margin-bottom: 10px;: Adds a bottom margin of 10 pixels to create spacing between each checkbox and its label.
Checkbox Styles:
input[type='checkbox'] {
  display: none;
}
  • input[type='checkbox']: Targets checkbox input elements.
  • display: none;: Hides the checkbox inputs from view, making them invisible.
Checkbox Label Styles:
input[type='checkbox'] + label:before {
  font-family: FontAwesome;
  display: inline-block;
}
input[type='checkbox'] + label:before {
  content: '\f096';
  letter-spacing: 5px;
}
input[type='checkbox']:checked + label:before {
  content: '\f046';
}
  • These styles affect the appearance of the labels associated with the checkboxes.
  • input[type='checkbox'] + label:before: Selects the pseudo-element ::before of the label immediately following a checkbox input.
  • font-family: FontAwesome;: Specifies that the Font Awesome icon font should be used for the pseudo-element's content.
  • display: inline-block;: Sets the pseudo-element to be displayed as an inline-block.
  • content: '\f096';: Sets the content of the pseudo-element to a specific Font Awesome icon, represented by its Unicode character.
  • letter-spacing: 5px;: Adds spacing between the icon and the label text.
  • input[type='checkbox']:checked + label:before: Styles the pseudo-element of a checked checkbox label, changing its content to a different Font Awesome icon.
Disabled Checkbox Label Styles:
.check input[disabled] + label {
  cursor: not-allowed;
}
  • This styles the label of a disabled checkbox, changing the cursor to "not-allowed" when hovering over it.
