Single-line inputs don't cut it for comments, messages, or descriptions. This React textarea field provides multi-line text entry with proper FieldLabel association using htmlFor. Built with shadcn/ui Textarea and Field components with resizable height, it's the foundation for any form needing paragraph input—feedback forms, comment sections, or support tickets where users need space to express themselves.
