Email

An input field with built-in email format validation.

Overview

The Email field renders an input[type=email] element and automatically validates that the entered value conforms to standard email format (e.g. user@example.com). On mobile devices, browsers will present a keyboard layout optimized for email entry.

Beyond format validation, you can restrict submissions to a specific domain by using the validation.pattern property with a domain-matching regex.

Note: The email field does not send a verification email. It only validates the format. To verify ownership, implement an email confirmation flow in your backend.
