Guidance

Freeform text input

Collect unpredictable freeform information.

Use when

Use when users must enter freeform information that cannot be reliably selected from a list. Do not choose a freeform field when a constrained choice would reduce errors or cognitive load.

Avoid when

Avoid using input as a default simply because it is available in the library. Choose it only when its interaction cost, visibility, and behavior match the job to be done.

Task length: short
Interaction cost: medium
Interruptiveness: none
Input precision: freeform
Mobile / touch risk: medium
Accessibility risk: medium
Needs background context: No
Comparison needed: No

Preferred alternatives

Radio or checkbox for bounded choices
Select or combobox for known options

Anti-patterns

Using freeform entry for a bounded answer set

API

manifest knowledge + registry-derived coverage

Props

Prop	Type / values	Default	Description

Capabilities

wcag-2.2-aa-target responsive rtl darkMode localized

Behavior

Uses server-rendered Blade and semantic HTML.
Forwards normal input attributes such as name, type, value, placeholder, disabled, and aria-* to the native input.
Declares registry capability flags: a11y, responsive, rtl, darkMode, localized.

Usage

previews.components.input.default.blade.php Blade

<x-ui.input type="email" value="jane@example.com" placeholder="you@example.com" aria-label="{{ __('Email') }}" class="w-full max-w-sm" />

Accessibility & localization

WCAG 2.2 AA RTL-ready data-slot Keyboard focus-visible Localized labels

Accessibility target: wcag-2.2-aa-target.
Uses semantic HTML and a stable data-slot attribute for styling/scripting hooks.
Focus-visible rings use the ring token so keyboard focus is always visible.
Disabled and invalid states are conveyed to assistive tech, not by color alone.
Targets WCAG 2.2 AA; verify contrast in light, dark, admin and customer surfaces above.
Labels go through __() and the component uses logical properties (ms-*, text-start, start-*) so it mirrors correctly — flip the preview to RTL to confirm.

Source

The exact, editable file ui:add writes into your app — copy it or own the whole thing. Previews render this same code; there are no preview-only components.
