password_field_basics

🔒 Creating password fields

For sensitive inputs like passwords, use password_field to mask the input. It functions similarly to text_field but hides characters for security. Combine it with validation in the model to enforce length or complexity.

<%= form_with model: @user, local: true do |f| %>
  <%= f.label :password %>
  <%= f.password_field :password %>
<% end %>
