The finer details
API referenceGenerated from Dixy’s local TypeScript interfaces. Native HTML attributes and refs are forwarded. The table covers Dixy’s own options.
PasswordField
| Prop | Type / description | Default |
|---|---|---|
visible | booleanControlled visibility of the password text. | — |
defaultVisible | booleanInitial visibility when uncontrolled. | false |
onVisibleChange | ((visible: boolean) => void)Called when the visibility toggle is pressed. | — |
toggleLabel | stringAccessible name of the toggle; its pressed state says whether the password is shown. | Show password |
Built from the same foundations
Styling tokensChange Theme settings above to compare appearance, accent, neutral, radius, spacing density, motion and direction. Override component aliases on a Theme root so custom properties follow portaled content too. The wrapper merges className, style, refs and render composition with its owning primitive.
| Token | Purpose |
|---|---|
--dixy-interaction-target | The component-specific starting point. |
--dixy-font-label-md | Control label font and line height; body roles remain readable in text inputs. |
--dixy-color-background-selected | Selected surfaces use semantic color across appearances. |
--dixy-color-border-focus | Focus indication remains visible independently of shadows. |
--dixy-spacing-inset-sm | Density-aware component padding. |
--dixy-motion-transition-feedback | Short state feedback, reduced by the inherited motion setting. |
Consider everyone
AccessibilityThe toggle has a constant name, Show password, and aria-pressed reports state, the toggle-button pattern. autocomplete defaults to current-password; use new-password on sign-up forms. Target WCAG 2.2 AA. Automated axe checks pass in unit tests; screen-reader, forced-colors and contrast verification in real browsers remains pending.
Target: WCAG 2.2 AA. Automated tests cover selected behavior; manual screen-reader, contrast, and zoom validation remain part of the release checklist.
Build it. Then understand it.
Controlled vs uncontrolled: visible wins when provided; otherwise internal state starts from defaultVisible.
