Video Tutorial to Create Login Form in ReactJS

If you prefer video tutorials, the YouTube video above is a great resource. It explains each line of code and provides comments to make the process of creating your ReactJS login form easy to follow. If you prefer reading or need a step-by-step guide, keep following this post.

Setting Up the Project

Before we start making the responsive login form with ReactJS and CSS, make sure you have Node.js installed on your computer. If you don’t have it, you can download and install it from the official Node.js website.

Create a Project Folder:

Make a new folder, for instance, “login-form”.
Open this folder in your VS Code editor.

Initialize the Project:

Open your terminal by pressing Ctrl + J and then use Vite to create a new React app with this command:

npm create vite@latest ./ -- --template react

Install necessary dependencies and start the development server:

npm install
npm run dev

If your project is up and running in your browser, congratulations! You’ve successfully set up your project. Now, let’s move on to the next step modifying folders and files.

Modify folder and CSS Files:

Remove the default assets folder and App.css file.
Download the logos and place them directly into your public folder. Ensure you only include the SVG logo files and not the logos folder itself.
Replace the content of index.css with the provided code.

Creating the Components

Within the src directory of your project, organize your files by creating a “components” folder. Inside the components folder, create the following files:

SocialLogin.jsx
InputField.jsx

Adding the Codes

Add the respective code to each newly created file. These files define the layout and functionality of the Login Form.

In components/SocialLogin.jsx, add the code to render social login buttons for Google and Apple.

const SocialLogin = () => {
  return (
    <div className="social-login">
      <button className="social-button">
        <img src="google.svg" alt="Google" className="social-icon" />
        Google
      </button>
      <button className="social-button">
        <img src="apple.svg" alt="Apple" className="social-icon" />
        Apple
      </button>
    </div>
  )
}

export default SocialLogin;

In components/InputField.jsx, add the code for email and password fields, and the functionality to toggle password visibility.

import { useState } from "react";

const InputField = ({ type, placeholder, icon }) => {
  // State to toggle password visibility
  const [isPasswordShown, setIsPasswordShown] = useState(false);

  return (
    <div className="input-wrapper">
      <input
        type={isPasswordShown ? 'text' : type}
        placeholder={placeholder}
        className="input-field"
        required
      />
      <i className="material-symbols-rounded">{icon}</i>
      {type === 'password' && (
        <i onClick={() => setIsPasswordShown(prevState => !prevState)} className="material-symbols-rounded eye-icon">
          {isPasswordShown ? 'visibility' : 'visibility_off'}
        </i>
      )}
    </div>
  )
}

export default InputField;

Finally, update the content of src/App.jsx with the provided code. It imports and uses these components to complete your login form.

import SocialLogin from "./components/SocialLogin";
import InputField from "./components/InputField";

const App = () => {
  return (
    <div className="login-container">
      <h2 className="form-title">Log in with</h2>
      <SocialLogin />

      <p className="separator"><span>or</span></p>

      <form action="#" className="login-form">
        <InputField type="email" placeholder="Email address" icon="mail" />
        <InputField type="password" placeholder="Password" icon="lock" />

        <a href="#" className="forgot-password-link">Forgot password?</a>
        <button type="submit" className="login-button">Log In</button>
      </form>

      <p className="signup-prompt">
        Don&apos;t have an account? <a href="#" className="signup-link">Sign up</a>
      </p>
    </div>
  )
}

export default App;

That’s it! If you’ve completed all the steps, you should now see your Login Form project in your browser. You can test it by entering an email and password, toggling password visibility, and trying out the social login options.
