How do I create a checkbox that's disbaled by default in Rails?

Question

I'm using Rails 5. How do I create a checkbox that is disabled (not clickable) by default? I tried

<%= f.check_box :mybox, :tabIndex => '1', :enabled => false %>

but the resulting checkbox is still rendered as enabled.

You can use the disabled attribute:

<%= f.check_box :mybox, tabIndex: '1', disabled: true %>
