A login form is an important component of any website or web application to authenticate users. It contains input fields and submit buttons.
Key components of a login form include:
- Input Fields: To accept user credentials (e.g., username and password).
- Submit Button: To send the entered information for authentication.
- Additional Features: Options like “Remember Me, “Forgot Password” or social login options.
The login form can be created using HTML and CSS. HTML is used to create a basic structure of a form and CSS styles are applied to the HTML element to make the form UI better.
