React Bootstrap Form Text (original) (raw)

Last Updated : 25 Jul, 2024

In this article, we will learn about the concept of React Bootstrap Form Text. **Form.Text in React Bootstrap is the component mainly used for rendering the text in the form. We can display the information, help messages, and other textual contents in the application by using this component. We will see the Syntax, Properties, and practical implementation of React Bootstrap Form Text.

**Syntax:

<Form.Text className="text-muted">
{/* textcontent */}
</Form.Text>

Properties:

**id: This property is the unique identifier fo the Form.Text component.
**className: This property is used to define the CSS classes that we can apply to the Form.Text component.
**bsPrefix: This property mainly overrides the default Bootstrap prefix, which allows the customization of class names.
****...props:** This property can be used to pass the props that are not explicitly handled.
