Viewport

Device view renders in an isolated frame so real responsive breakpoints apply. Switch to Full for overflowing popovers.

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-group 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

Usage

<x-ui.input-group>
    <x-ui.input-group.addon>
        <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" aria-hidden="true">
            <circle cx="11" cy="11" r="8" />
            <path d="m21 21-4.3-4.3" />
        </svg>
    </x-ui.input-group.addon>

    <x-ui.input-group.input placeholder="{{ __('Search...') }}" />

    <x-ui.input-group.addon align="inline-end">
        <x-ui.input-group.button>{{ __('Go') }}</x-ui.input-group.button>
    </x-ui.input-group.addon>
</x-ui.input-group>

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.
