Feature Request:
The Input component is needed to allow users to enter text or select options from various input fields. It serves as a fundamental element for capturing user input in forms and interactive components.
Reasons for the Component:
User Input Collection: The Input component provides a means for users to enter textual information, make selections, or interact with form fields, enabling data submission and interaction within the application.
Input Validation: By incorporating the Input component, we can implement validation and error handling to ensure that users provide valid and expected input.
Consistency and Reusability: Having a standardized Input component allows us to establish consistent design patterns and behavior across the application, making it easier to maintain and enhance.
Variations and Special Options:
Regarding handling different types of input, there are two possible approaches:
Single Component with Options: Create a single Input component that supports various input types and provide options to customize its behavior. This approach allows flexibility and reuse, as the same component can handle different input types (text, number, email, etc.). The options can include:
Input type: Specify the type of input (text, number, email, etc.) using a prop or attribute.
Validation: Provide options for input validation rules, such as required fields, character limits, and format restrictions.
Icon and Label: Include options to display icons or labels based on the input type to enhance usability.
Multiple Component Approach: Create separate components for different input types. This approach offers specialized components tailored to each input type, providing more focused functionality and potentially better user experience. For example, having distinct components like TextInput, NumberInput, EmailInput, etc., each with specific features and validation rules.
Consider the specific needs of the project and the trade-offs between flexibility and specialization to determine the preferred approach.
