+**Label (required):** The input's title. It should be as concise as possible and convey the purpose of the input. The label may be visually hidden in rare cases, but a label must be defined for assistive technologies such as a screen reader. If the label is visually hidden, ensure there is an element nearby that serves as a visual label for the input.
