Password validation

Bootstrap 5 Password validation component

Responsive Password validation built with Bootstrap 5. Provide feedback your users whether their password strength is sufficient through password validation.

Basic example

To make a validation element that also displays password requirements:

  1. use input with type=password and div with alert class
  2. Add custom CSS that will add display: none for checks and crosses icons
  3. Add JS that:
    1. a) will make the alert div appear when the input element is in focus and disappear when it is not
    2. b) specify the terms of the password
    3. c) will turn crosses icons into checks if the condition is met and vice versa, and if all conditions are met, it will change the div background and feedback input color
