Custom input elements in web design enable us to improve the user experience by styling standard form controls like checkboxes and radio buttons. By overriding the default appearance of these elements, we can create visually appealing interfaces that harmonize with the overall aesthetic of our websites. This technique often utilizes the CSS property appearance: none; to remove standard styling, allowing for the implementation of custom backgrounds, shapes, and transitions.
