    <FormControl.Input placeholder={'None...'} />
  </FormControl>
  <FormControl validation="invalid">
    <FormControl.Label>Email address</FormControl.Label>

Email address

Description with no validation

* Hint with validation

<View>
  <FormControl className="min-w-[300px]" validation="invalid">
    <FormControl.Label>Email address</FormControl.Label>
    <FormControl.Text validation="none">Description with no validation</FormControl.Text>
    <FormControl.Input placeholder={'Enter an email address...'} />
    <FormControl.Text>* Hint with validation</FormControl.Text>
  </FormControl>
</View>

Required

The FormControl.Label component can be marked as required by adding the required prop.

Email address

<View>
  <FormControl className="min-w-[300px]">
    <FormControl.Label required>Email address</FormControl.Label>
    <FormControl.Input placeholder={'Required email address...'} />
  </FormControl>
</View>

Control ID

The FormControl component automatically generates an id for the form (Input, Select, Combobox and Textarea) elements and assigns its value to the htmlFor attribute of the FormControl.Label component. This allows the user to click on the label to focus the form element.
