Import

Import the component from its dedicated entry point to keep the dependency and generated bundle explicit.

TSX

tsximport { FormLabel } from "@tavojs/ui/form-label";

Normal Tavo.js applications load component styles through the Tavo.js UI plugin. If the application manages component CSS manually, also import @tavojs/ui/css/form-label.

When to use

Use it when

Use FormLabel when a custom form composition needs an explicit label element and you will wire its for value to the control ID yourself.

Choose something else when

Prefer Field for common inputs because Field generates label, message, required-state, and ARIA wiring together.

Examples

FormLabel example

TSX

tsximport { FormLabel } from "@tavojs/ui/form-label";

export function FormLabelExample1() {
  return (
    <>
      <FormLabel>Account settings</FormLabel>
    </>
  );
}

State ownership and DOM target

Concern	Contract
State	No component state contract is exposed; the application owns the rendered content and surrounding behavior.
DOM target	Native input attributes target the owned form control; wrapper-specific props stay on the documented component root.

Anatomy and related components

This component exposes one public component root rather than a compound member API.

Limitations

Prefer Field for common inputs because Field generates label, message, required-state, and ARIA wiring together.

Use only the documented props, entry points, and compound members. Internal DOM nesting and CSS class names can change without becoming part of the public component contract.

Accessibility

Form components pass through native attributes and should be paired with visible labels or accessible names.

Use Field, FormLabel, FormControlLabel, or aria-label for labeling.
Preserve native input semantics whenever possible.
Expose validation with error text and aria-invalid where relevant.
