# TextField

A field for editing a line of text.

```tsx
import { TextField } from '@satinhq/kit'
```

## Example

Click the Name field and type. Try the system keyboard on a device.

<!-- example: text-field open -->

```tsx
import { useState } from 'react'
import { List, Screen, Section, TextField } from '@satinhq/kit'

function Example() {
  const [text, setText] = useState('')

  return (
    <Screen>
      <List id="example">
        <Section>
          <TextField label="Name" value={text} onChange={setText} />
        </Section>
      </List>
    </Screen>
  )
}
```

## Bind the text

Keep the text in React state. Pass the string to `value` and its setter to `onChange`.

## Name the field

Use `label` for its accessible name. A `prompt` supplies placeholder text when the field is empty.

## Choose keyboard and Return behavior

Set `kind` to describe the value, such as `name`, `email` or `decimal`. `submitLabel` supplies the Return-key hint; `onSubmit` handles Return in a single-line field.
