</fieldset>Props
The FormTextarea component extends the standard Textarea component props with additional form-specific properties:
| Prop | Type | Default |
|---|---|---|
variant | "default" | "success" | "warning" | "error" | - |
leftIcon | ReactNode | - |
rightIcon | ReactNode | - |
wrapperClassName | string | - |
label | string | - |
description | ReactNode | - |
required | boolean | - |
optional | boolean | - |
error | string | - |
Accessibility
FormTextarea is built with accessibility in mind:
- Labels are properly associated with textareas using htmlFor/id
- Error messages are announced to screen readers using role="alert"
- Required fields are marked both visually and via aria-required
- Helper text is linked to textareas using aria-describedby
- Error states are indicated using aria-invalid
Best Practices
When using the FormTextarea component:
- Always provide clear, concise labels
- Use description text to provide additional context when needed
- Keep error messages specific and actionable
- Use required fields sparingly and logically
- Group related form elements using fieldset and legend when appropriate
- Consider the mobile experience when writing labels and descriptions
- Maintain consistent validation patterns across your form
- Consider character/word limits for lengthy inputs
- Use the rows attribute to set an appropriate initial height
- Test with screen readers to ensure accessibility
Layout Guidelines
- Labels should be clear and concise
- Error messages should appear immediately below the textarea
- Description text should be helpful but not too lengthy
- Consider using the optional badge for clarity in forms with many fields
