Tailwind Dark Mode Glowing Radio Button

Radio rows designed for dark UI: the custom indicator ignites with a three-layer cyan glow that breathes on a slow loop. The glow is a --animate-trb04-breathe theme token whose keyframes live inside @theme, and the solid inner dot keeps the checked state readable without glow (WCAG 1.4.1).

What changed in the port

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

  • The @keyframes crb-04a-breathe block moved inside @theme behind an --animate-* token; color-mix(…transparent) glows became oklch slash-alpha values.
  • The reduced-motion override is two stacked variants on the indicator: motion-reduce:group-has-checked:animate-none and …:shadow-trb04-still.
  • UI upgrade from the CSS original: each theme now previews its palette with three overlapping swatches (-space-x-1 + *:ring-2) — the option shows what it does.
  • UI upgrade: meta copy rose from #6a7490 (3.9:1) to #939cb5 (7:1), the unchecked ring from #4a5470 to 3.2:1, and the type moved to Space Grotesk + JetBrains Mono for a real terminal voice.

How this works

Animation as a token. In v4 an --animate-* entry mints a utility; the keyframes nest inside @theme and are emitted only if a class uses them. The three shadow layers are written in oklch with slash alpha, so the glow stays coherent with the accent.

Glow is garnish. The inner dot fills solid on check and the row border brightens, so the state survives screenshots, low-quality displays and forced colours.

Make it yours

  • Neon hue: change --color-trb04-glow and the three oklch values inside the keyframes.
  • Breathing speed: edit 2.6s in --animate-trb04-breathe.
  • Swatches are plain spans — replace them with your theme's real palette.

Gotchas — read before shipping

  • Animating box-shadow repaints; keep it on the 20px indicator, never on the row.
  • Check the unchecked ring's contrast on your real panel — dark-on-dark rings vanish (this one is 3.2:1).
  • Keyframes inside @theme must be referenced by an --animate-* token that a utility uses, or they are tree-shaken.

Box-shadow glow is universal; :has() tints the row.
