Radio Buttons

Radio buttons are visually hidden and replaced with custom style via pseudo content attached to the adjacent label:

input[type="radio"] {
    clip: rect(0 0 0 0);
    clip-path: inset(50%);
    height: 1px;
    overflow: hidden;
    position: absolute;
    white-space: nowrap;
    width: 1px;
}

input[type="radio"] + label::before {
    /* Custom radio button style. */
}

Labels and the corresponding radio button element are intended to be wrapped in a containing element of some sort, ideally a paragraph.

A group of radio buttons is wrapped in a fieldset with a legend which names the input group. This technique is derived from WebAIM’s article, Accessible Form Controls.

A hint for the group can be added immediately after the <legend> in a paragraph with a class of field__hint.

A validation error message for the group can be added immediately after the last checkbox in a paragraph with a class of field__error.

Hints and validation error messages must be associated with the radio buttons using unique IDs which can be referenced from the radio buttons’ aria-describedby attributes. For more information, see WebAIM’s form validation error documentation.

Radio buttons with an associated error should also be given an aria-invalid attribute of true.
