Implementing a dynamic form with live preview of user input in Next.js involves several steps. You'll need to create a React component for the form, handle user input changes, and update the preview dynamically. Here's a basic example of how you can achieve this:
Set up your Next.js project:
Make sure you have a Next.js project set up. If not, you can create one using create-next-app
or any other method you prefer.
Create a form component:
Create a new React component for your dynamic form. Let's call it DynamicForm.js
. Here's a basic structure:
jsximport React, { useState } from 'react';
const DynamicForm = () => {
const [formData, setFormData] = useState({
// Initialize your form fields here
firstName: '',
lastName: '',
email: '',
});
const handleChange = (e) => {
const { name, value } = e.target;
setFormData({ ...formData, [name]: value });
};
return (
<form>
<label>
First Name:
<input
type="text"
name="firstName"
value={formData.firstName}
onChange={handleChange}
/>
</label>
<label>
Last Name:
<input
type="text"
name="lastName"
value={formData.lastName}
onChange={handleChange}
/>
</label>
<label>
Email:
<input
type="email"
name="email"
value={formData.email}
onChange={handleChange}
/>
</label>
<div>
<h2>Preview:</h2>
<p>First Name: {formData.firstName}</p>
<p>Last Name: {formData.lastName}</p>
<p>Email: {formData.email}</p>
</div>
</form>
);
};
export default DynamicForm;
DynamicForm
component wherever you want to display the form. For example, in your pages/index.js
file:jsximport DynamicForm from '../components/DynamicForm';
const Home = () => {
return (
<div>
<h1>Dynamic Form with Live Preview</h1>
<DynamicForm />
</div>
);
};
export default Home;
With this setup, whenever users type into the form fields, the preview section will update in real-time to reflect the changes.
