Inconsistent defaultChecked type between documentation, widget builder, and Python library

Issue: Inconsistent defaultChecked type between documentation, widget builder, and Python library

According to the Checkbox documentation, the defaultChecked property is defined as a boolean.
However, in the Python SDK, its type is currently defined as a string, and in the widget builder, the defaultChecked field also expects a string input.

Widget Builder

The widget builder interface currently enforces defaultChecked as a string type.

Python Library Definition

class Checkbox(WidgetComponentBase):
    """Checkbox input component."""

    type: Literal["Checkbox"] = Field(default="Checkbox", frozen=True)
    name: str
    label: str | None = None
    defaultChecked: str | None = None  # <-- Should this be bool instead?
    onChangeAction: ActionConfig | None = None
    disabled: bool | None = None
    required: bool | None = None

Expected Behavior

The defaultChecked property should consistently use a boolean type (True or False) across:

• The documentation
• The Python SDK
• The widget builder UI

Proposed Solution

• Update the Python SDK to define:

  defaultChecked: bool | None = None

• Update the widget builder to handle boolean input (true/false) instead of string values.

• Ensure consistency across all layers (documentation, UI, SDK).
