Radio

Components

A radio button is an interactive control that allows users to select exactly one option from a predefined set of mutually exclusive choices. Unlike checkboxes, when one radio button is selected, all others in the same group are automatically deselected.

Clickability

Consider what is clickable to make the radio option active (text label, container)
