}Anchor to best-practicesBest practices
- Write descriptive labels: Use specific labels like "Customer Email" or "Receipt Email Address" rather than generic "Email."
- Provide context in details: Use
detailsfor additional context like "Required for digital receipts" or "We'll send order updates to this address." - Write actionable error messages: Provide clear validation messages like "Please enter a valid email address" that help users correct their input.
