Composition#

Field#

A single control with label, helper text, and validation.

FieldGroup#

Related fields in one group. Use FieldSeparator between sections when needed.

Anatomy#

The Field family is designed for composing accessible forms. A typical field is structured as follows:

Copy<Field>
  <FieldLabel @for="input-id">Label</FieldLabel>
  {{! Input, Select, Switch, etc. }}
  <FieldDescription>Optional helper text.</FieldDescription>
  <FieldError>Validation message.</FieldError>
</Field>

• Field is the core wrapper for a single field.
• FieldContent is a flex column that groups label and description. Not required if you have no description.
• Wrap related fields with FieldGroup, and use FieldSet with FieldLegend for semantic grouping.

Form#

See the Form documentation for building forms with the Field component.

Examples#

Input#

Textarea#

Select#

Slider#

Fieldset#

Checkbox#

Radio#

Switch#

Choice Card#

Wrap Field components inside FieldLabel to create selectable field groups. This works with RadioItem, Checkbox and Switch components.

Field Group#

Stack Field components with FieldGroup. Add FieldSeparator to divide them.

RTL#

To enable RTL support in Force UI, see the RTL configuration guide.

Responsive Layout#

• Vertical fields: Default orientation stacks label, control, and helper text—ideal for mobile-first layouts.
• Horizontal fields: Set @orientation="horizontal" on Field to align the label and control side-by-side. Pair with FieldContent to keep descriptions aligned.
• Responsive fields: Set @orientation="responsive" for automatic column layouts inside container-aware parents. Apply @container/field-group classes on FieldGroup to switch orientations at specific breakpoints.

Validation and Errors#

• Add data-invalid to Field to switch the entire block into an error state.
• Add aria-invalid on the input itself for assistive technologies.
• Render FieldError immediately after the control or inside FieldContent to keep error messages aligned with the field.

Copy<Field data-invalid>
  <FieldLabel @for="email">Email</FieldLabel>
  <Input id="email" type="email" aria-invalid />
  <FieldError>Enter a valid email address.</FieldError>
</Field>

Accessibility#

• FieldSet and FieldLegend keep related controls grouped for keyboard and assistive tech users.
• Field outputs role="group" so nested controls inherit labeling from FieldLabel and FieldLegend when combined.
• Apply FieldSeparator sparingly to ensure screen readers encounter clear section boundaries.

API Reference#

FieldSet#

Container that renders a semantic fieldset with spacing presets.

Copy<FieldSet>
  <FieldLegend>Delivery</FieldLegend>
  <FieldGroup>{{! Fields }}</FieldGroup>
</FieldSet>

FieldLegend#

Legend element for a FieldSet. Switch to the label variant to align with label sizing.

Copy<FieldLegend @variant="label">Notification Preferences</FieldLegend>

The FieldLegend has two variants: legend and label. The label variant applies label sizing and alignment. Handy if you have nested FieldSet.

FieldGroup#

Layout wrapper that stacks Field components and enables container queries for responsive orientations.

Copy<FieldGroup @class="@container/field-group flex flex-col gap-6">
  <Field>{{! ... }}</Field>
  <Field>{{! ... }}</Field>
</FieldGroup>

Field#

The core wrapper for a single field. Provides orientation control, invalid state styling, and spacing.

Copy<Field @orientation="horizontal">
  <FieldLabel @for="remember">Remember me</FieldLabel>
  <Switch id="remember" />
</Field>

FieldContent#

Flex column that groups control and descriptions when the label sits beside the control. Not required if you have no description.

Copy<Field>
  <Checkbox id="notifications" />
  <FieldContent>
    <FieldLabel @for="notifications">Notifications</FieldLabel>
    <FieldDescription>Email, SMS, and push options.</FieldDescription>
  </FieldContent>
</Field>

FieldLabel#

Label styled for both direct inputs and nested Field children.

Copy<FieldLabel @for="email">Email</FieldLabel>

FieldTitle#

Renders a title with label styling inside FieldContent.

Copy<FieldContent>
  <FieldTitle>Enable Touch ID</FieldTitle>
  <FieldDescription>Unlock your device faster.</FieldDescription>
</FieldContent>

FieldDescription#

Helper text slot that automatically balances long lines in horizontal layouts.

Copy<FieldDescription>We never share your email with anyone.</FieldDescription>

FieldSeparator#

Visual divider to separate sections inside a FieldGroup. Accepts optional inline content.

Copy<FieldSeparator>Or continue with</FieldSeparator>

FieldError#

Accessible error container that accepts children or an @errors array (e.g., from form validation).

Copy<FieldError @errors={{@errors.username}} />

When the @errors array contains multiple messages, the component renders a list automatically.

FieldError also accepts issues produced by any validator that implements Standard Schema, including Zod, Valibot, and ArkType. Pass the issues array from the schema result directly to render a unified error list across libraries.
