Users hate password fields that reject their input without explanation. This React field places FieldDescription before the Input with Must be at least 8 characters long requirement visible upfront. Built with shadcn/ui Field components with description above input, it's perfect for fields with strict validation rules, format requirements, or critical constraints users must know before typing—not after they've already failed.
Must be at least 8 characters long.
