Forms are Fundamental

It’s hard to think of a website that doesn’t contain forms. Even if your content is a canon of theological theses, you’re at least going to want to get users to subscribe to your newsletter. The most critical considerations are to keep it simple, even if you’re running frameworks on top of frameworks, your forms are going to boil down to something like the one below.

Interactive elements are also very important styling opportunities. Beyond tweaks to font size and padding for legibility, box shadows are an effective way to highlight the special nature of the input boxes. Animation allows inputs and buttons to indicate hover and focus without jarring color transitions.
