Switch
Switches are bascially also checkboxes, but with a different style.
<mobiscroll.Switch />
The <mobiscroll.Switch />
renders a checkox input wrapped inside a label element.
In addition to the Switch attributes, it supports the following props:
<mobiscroll.Switch checked={this.state.lights} onChange={this.lightsChanged}>
Lights
</mobiscroll.Switch>
