About this component
A progressive input stack that reveals additional fields as users interact, reducing cognitive load and creating a more focused form experience. The stacking animation provides visual hierarchy while progressive disclosure guides users through complex input sequences one step at a time.
Implementation highlights
- Progressive disclosure pattern that reveals inputs based on user progress
- Stacking animations with depth effect using CSS transforms and shadows
- Focus management that automatically advances to newly revealed fields
- Framer Motion layout animations for smooth reordering and expansion
- Validation state integration with visual feedback on each input
When to use
- Multi-step forms where showing all fields at once would overwhelm users
- Progressive input collection in onboarding or signup flows
- Wizard-style interfaces with sequential data entry
- Conditional form fields that depend on previous answers
- Any form experience benefiting from reduced visual complexity
