## Examples
-### Type: Password
-
-Creates an input where the user can enter a password.
-The characters entered are hidden, usually represented by dots or asterisks, so that the actual text is not visible.
-
-Use the password type when the input requires sensitive information, like passwords or PINs.
-It ensures that the input is not readable by others who might be looking at the screen.
-
-Consider setting the following attributes:
-
-1. Allow the user’s password manager to automatically fill the password through `autocomplete="current-password"`.
- When asking for a new password, use `autocomplete="new-password"` instead.
-2. Add a `minlength` attribute to ensure passwords meet a minimum length requirement.
- Do not add a `maxlength` attribute.
-3. Use the `pattern` attribute to enforce password policies, like including numbers and special characters.
- Describe these policies in the [Field](?path=/docs/components-forms-field--docs)’s description as well.
-4. If the password is a numeric PIN, add `inputmode="numeric"`.
- Devices with virtual keyboards then switch to a numeric keypad layout which makes entering the password easier.
-5. Set `autocapitalize="none"`, `autocorrect="off"` and `spellcheck="false"` to stop browsers automatically changing user input.
- Passwords shouldn’t be checked for spelling or grammar.
- This may also prevent posting the password to third-party plugins.
-
-Follow the [guidelines for asking for passwords](https://design-system.service.gov.uk/patterns/passwords/) of the GOV.UK Design System.
