A single button click is too easy for life-changing deletions. This React alert dialog adds a checkbox users must check before the Delete Account button becomes active. Built with shadcn/ui and Radix UI with centered AlertTriangle icon, the extra interaction step forces deliberate choice. Perfect for account deletions, data purges, or any catastrophic action where you need users to actively acknowledge consequences, not just muscle-memory click through.
