# Input: Native validation

> Fields with `required`, `type="email"` or `pattern` only turn red after someone has typed in them or tried to submit, never on first render. A submit that finds a field invalid shakes it once, so the eye lands on what needs fixing. It never shakes while you type or tab around. Submit the empty form to see it.

Component docs: https://hextaui.com/docs/input.md

## Add this example

```bash
npx shadcn@latest add https://hextaui.com/r/input-native-validation.json
```

This adds `components/examples/input/native-validation.tsx` with the Input component and the HextaUI theme tokens.
