A developer was asked to style radio buttons and discovered their codebase used Shadcn components built on Radix, requiring 260+ lines of React code, dependencies, and ARIA attributes to recreate what a native HTML input does. The complex setup renders buttons with SVG instead of native radio inputs, despite CSS solutions like appearance: none and border-radius making radio button styling straightforward for years.
