This article will guide you through the steps needed to add a basic RadCheckBox control in your application.

1. Setting up the app

Take a look at the Getting Started article how to setup the Telerik Blazor Mobile Bindings for Xamarin project.

2. Adding the required Telerik references

You have two options:

  • Add the Telerik.UI.for.Xamarin.Blazor Nuget package following the instructions from the Telerik Nuget package server topic.

  • Add the references to Telerik assemblies manually, check the list bellow with the required assemblies for RadCheckBox component:

Platform Assemblies
Portable Telerik.XamarinForms.Blazor.Primitives.dll
Telerik.XamarinForms.Primitives.dll
Android Telerik.Xamarin.Android.Primitives.dll
Telerik.XamarinForms.Primitives.dll
iOS Telerik.Xamarin.iOS.dll
Telerik.XamarinForms.Primitives.dll

3. Adding RadCheckBox control

RadCheckbox definition:

<ContentView>
    <StackLayout>
        <RadCheckBox IsChecked="@IsChecked" 
                     IsCheckedChanged="@OnCheckedChanged" />
        <Label Text="@IsCheckBoxChecked" />
    </StackLayout>
</ContentView>

@code
{
    public string IsCheckBoxChecked { get; set; }
    public bool IsChecked { get; set; }

    protected override void OnInitialized()
    {
        base.OnInitialized();

        this.IsChecked = false;
        this.IsCheckBoxChecked = this.IsChecked.ToString(); 
    }

    private void OnCheckedChanged(CheckBox.IsCheckedChangedEventArgs args)
    {
        this.IsCheckBoxChecked = args.NewValue.ToString();
    }
}

Here is the result:
