How do I bind to list of checkbox values with AngularJS?

Question

I have a few checkboxes:

Answer 1

Since you accepted an answer in which a list was not used, I'll assume the answer to my comment question is "No, it doesn't have to be a list". I also had the impression that maybe you were rending the HTML server side, since "checked" is present in your sample HTML (this would not be needed if ng-model were used to model your checkboxes).

Anyway, here's what I had in mind when I asked the question, also assuming you were generating the HTML server-side:

    apple
    orange
    pear
    naartjie
    
{{checkboxes}}

ng-init allows server-side generated HTML to initially set certain checkboxes.

Fiddle.
