States

The 3 reference states silverpoint declares for Switch, live on both grounds, with their code. As in upstream's documentation the examples are uncontrolled: the state's value is the default value. Pick a framework once and every example on the site follows it.

Import

Each component has its own subpath under ui/, and every adapter exports them all from ui. Import @silverpoint/grounds/ui.css once, beside styles.css; Reflex adds it for you.

Binding the value

Controlled or uncontrolled, the way each framework does it. The change event carries the new value itself (a string, a bool or a number), never a DOM event.

Common props

Every UI component also takes these. Like a chart's, they fall back to the dashboard the component sits in, then to the provider. Read more about the UI components.
