Angular Forms: Validation Made Simple

Hello, and welcome to this Angular tutorial! Today, we’re diving into one of the most essential topics for forms: validation and error messages. We’ll take a basic form and provide several validation messages to help guide users. Plus, we’ll level up with additional checks like email validation and even visual feedback for the form’s status as a whole.

Adding a Simple Required Field Validator

Ok, the form that we’ll be using in this tutorial looks like this:

Right now, neither the “name” or “email” fields are required, but we want to make them both required before the user can successfully submit the form.

Also, we want to add validation messages to provide visual feedback when these fields are invalid so that users know what they need to do in order to complete the form.
