Textarea

The p-textarea component is a multi-line text input control. Don't use a Textarea component if you want to allow users to enter shorter responses that are no longer than a single line, such as a phone number or name. In this case, you should use the Text Field component.

A label is a caption which informs the user what information a particular form field is asking for. The p-textarea component can be used with or without a label, but it's recommended to keep the label visible for better accessibility whenever possible. When used without a label, it's mandatory to provide a descriptive label text for screen readers.

While a placeholder is optional but recommended to be set whenever bits of example content or hints shall be shown to give the user visual cues to fill out the form.

When the p-textarea component is used within a form, it utilizes the ElementInternals API, which has limited browser support. For broader browser compatibility, consider using a controlled approach instead.

Instead of relying on slotted content, the p-textarea component offers a value attribute and property that remain synchronized with user input.
