Create a Form with Show/Hide Password in Tailwind CSS

Last Updated : 28 Apr, 2025

Show/Hide Password visibility is the feature in web applications through which users can view the entered password with dynamic behavior by toggling through the show/hide icon. This increases the user experience in a visually appealing way. The user can easily maintain security while filling out forms in real-time. With the use of Tailwind CSS, we can easily implement this functionality by having a dynamic password visibility toggle.

Approach

Create a basic HTML structure with two input fields for Username and Password, and create a button to submit the form.
Include Tailwind CSS in the project. We can include it by using its CDN link.
Use Tailwind CSS classes to style the input fields along with the button for a clean and responsive design.
In the main JavaScript code, use addEventListener() to the password toggle button, which dynamically changes the password input field between text and password visibility.
When the form is submitted the submitted message is been logged into the console.

Example: Implementation to Create a form with show/hide password in Tailwind CSS.

JavaScript

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () {
    const passIn = document.getElementById('password');
    const btn = document.getElementById('togglePassword');
    btn.addEventListener('click', function () {
        const type =
            passIn.getAttribute('type') ===
                'password' ? 'text' : 'password';
        passIn.setAttribute('type', type);
    });
    const loginForm = document.getElementById('loginForm');
    loginForm.addEventListener('submit', function (event) {
        event.preventDefault();
        loginForm.reset(); // Reset the form
        alert('Form submitted');
    });
});
