Brutalist Checkbox in Tailwind CSS — Neo-Brutalism Hard Shadow

Thick black borders, a 4px offset shadow and a box that physically presses into its shadow on check (group-has-checked:translate-1 shadow-none). New: the checked label gets a yellow marker highlight with box-decoration-clone, so the whole row shouts its state.

What changed in the port

Which parts became utilities, which stayed CSS, and why.

  • transform:translate(4px,4px);box-shadow:0 0 0 #000 became peer-checked:translate-1 peer-checked:shadow-none.
  • The 'Arial Black' stack became Archivo Black from Google Fonts, so the look no longer depends on a Windows system font.
  • UI upgrade from the CSS original: hover lifts the box (bigger shadow) before the press, and checked labels get a marker highlight so the entire row carries state.
  • UI upgrade: a mono header labels the list, and rows are 60px tall.

How this works

The press is geometry. Moving the box 4px down-right while removing its 4px shadow makes it look pushed into the page — the shadow is exactly the travel.

Hover invites it. group-hover:-translate-0.5 lifts the box and grows its shadow before the press.

Marker label. The label span gets the accent background on check; box-decoration-clone keeps padding on wrapped lines.

Make it yours

  • Colour pop: swap --color-tcb15-acc for hot pink #ff5fa2.
  • Bigger shadow: 6px shadow token + translate-1.5.
  • Rotate the panel -rotate-1 for a sticker look.
  • Remove the marker for a quieter list.

Gotchas — read before shipping

  • Brutalism depends on pure black; don't soften it to gray-900 or the style collapses.
  • The accent yellow fails as text colour — use it only as background under black ink.
  • Reduced motion removes the press translate but keeps the fill.

box-decoration-break is unprefixed in Chrome 130; Tailwind emits the -webkit- prefix.
