Measured entry
originui-comp-34
A controlled React text input with a visible, live character counter and an associated label. It ships as a shadcn registry component plus a small state hook, and relies on Origin UI's shared Input and Label primitives, Tailwind theme classes, a local class-name utility, and Radix UI for the label primitive.

What the harness recorded
BARE BUILD
✗ Build failed in 5.41s error during build: [vite:load-fallback] Could not load <sandbox>/src/lib/utils (imported by src/components/ui/input.tsx): ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '<sandbox>/src/lib/utils'
Verdict
A focused choice for forms that benefit from an always-visible character count. It mounts cleanly in the prepared harness, but it needs a shadcn-style setup because the bare source expects local aliases, utilities, themed classes, and shared UI primitives.
Use it if
- You need a labeled single-line field that shows users how much text they can still enter.
- Your app already uses shadcn-style aliases, Tailwind theme tokens, and shared form primitives.
- You want the counter connected to the field and announced as its value changes.
Skip it if
- Your form library must own the field value and you do not want to adapt the included state hook.
- You need multiline input, byte-aware limits, or validation rules beyond a simple character cap.
- You want a dependency-free native input without registry primitives or Radix UI.
Install
| Declared dependencies | radix-ui |
|---|---|
| Missing on install | none |
| Bare install | fails once the shadcn-style helpers are removed, so it needs that setup |
| Provider | no provider required in the harness |
In a non-shadcn project, add Radix UI, the Input and Label primitives, the character-limit hook, a compatible class-name helper, Tailwind styles and theme tokens, and either configure the source alias or rewrite the imports. The component also needs React client-side state support.
