Pill Slider
Three-option pill where the active background slides smoothly between selections — perfect for plan toggles and view switchers.

A 5-point star draws itself in via stroke-dasharray when selected — premium choice for ratings, favourites, and priority radios.

Each option is a card that tilts up and glows when chosen — feature-rich plan picker for SaaS pricing pages.

Clean radio that converts to a check tick on selection — instead of a dot, the indicator becomes a checkmark for a "confirmed" feel.
Open

Avatar Picker
Round avatar tiles that scale up and glow on selection — perfect for character/profile pickers in onboarding flows.

Vertical stack with a slim left accent rail that slides between options — perfect for settings panels and form sections.

Skeuomorphic depressed-button style — the selected option sinks into the surface with an inverted shadow for tactile feedback.
Open
18 Pure CSS
Glow Pulse
Selecting a radio fires a soft expanding halo that radiates outward from the dot — pure CSS, animation runs once per selection via a keyframed box-shadow ripple.
