UISwitch, something similar for Mac?

I’m sure most of you are familiar with the UISwitch on iOS.

Is their any existing project trying to implement something like a UISwitch for macOS and AppKit?

If not, where would one start to make one? I see them frequently and can think of so many uses.

I've used the Mondo Switch that's part of the Cocoa Mondo Kit. It works pretty well.

starting with macOS 10.15 'Catalina' there is a native control for that called NSSwitch: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appkit/nsswitch?language=objc

For anyone that comes across this question in the future, I have developed a UISwitch for Mac (MacToggle) Swift 3 & AutoLayout

https://github.com/RichAppz/MacToggle

enter image description here

It's a replica of the iOS UISwitch and fully customisable.

Enjoy

ITSwitch requires no images, integrates with Interface Builder and has lovely (modern) animations:

I recently extended Peter Hosey's PRHOnOffButton to add iOS-like background colors and labels. Since mine is derived, it may or may not have the same caveat described above by Peter.

You could use Peter Hosey’s PRHOnOffButton.

I think you should use NSCheckBox since it is the equivalent on a computer where you use a mouse and not your finger.
