Split Contact Form
A contact form beside the channels that bypass it — a real address, a support link and a response-time promise, which is what makes a form people cannot see into feel worth filling.
A three-step form where each step validates only its own fields, errors are wired to inputs with aria-describedby, and advancing moves focus to the new heading.

Free to read, copy and install, for personal and non-commercial projects. Shipping it in client work or a paid product needs Pro ($79 once). The source lands in your repo and stops being ours — no attribution, nothing to upgrade.
Start a page with this section — add more, order them, and leave with the page source.
Rendered live in your current theme — this is the same component whose source is below, not a screenshot of it.

/**
* <MultiStepForm> — a three-step form with a stepper and per-step validation.
*
* The pattern exists to make a long form feel finishable. What makes it
* work is that each step is genuinely complete on its own: you can answer
* everything visible, and "Continue" is refused only for a field you can
* currently see. A wizard that fails on step 1 because of something on
* step 3 is worse than one long page.
*
* The accessibility of a stepper is almost always wrong, so:
*
* - The stepper is an ordered list, not a row of divs. Position in a
* sequence is the entire meaning, and `<ol>` is what conveys it.
* - The current step carries `aria-current="step"`.
* - Completed steps say so in text (`sr-only` "completed"), because a
* green tick is colour and shape only.
* - Errors use `aria-invalid` plus `aria-describedby` pointing at the
* message, so the message is read *with* the field rather than being
* a red sentence floating nearby.
* - Advancing moves focus to the new step's heading, which is what tells
* a screen reader anything happened at all. Without it the user presses
* Continue and hears silence.
*
* Validation is deliberately trivial (required, and an `@` in the email) —
* this is a layout and a flow, not a schema library. Swap `validateStep`
* for Zod or your own rules; nothing else needs to change.

bg-card, text-muted-foreground) — it inherits your theme instead of overriding it.Drop it at components/multi-step-form.tsx and import it where you need the section:
import { MultiStepForm } from '@/components/multi-step-form'3 of this block’s props are simple enough to drive from here. Change them and the block below re-renders — it is the same component whose source is above, not a mock of it. Everything else it accepts is in the table underneath.
Read out of the component’s own type and signature, so this cannot drift from the source below. Every prop has a default — the component renders standalone before you pass it anything.
| Prop | Type | Default |
|---|---|---|
heading | string | 'Set up your workspace' |
steps | string[] | DEFAULT_STEPS |
submitLabel | string | 'Create workspace' |
successMessage | string | 'Workspace created. Check your email for the … |
onSubmit | (values: MultiStepValues) => void | Promise<void> | — |
className | string | '' |
The same block rendered once to markup, wrapped as a file your framework compiles. Tailwind classes are framework-agnostic, so the design transfers intact — the behaviour does not.
This block is interactive. The markup below is its initial state with the event handlers stripped — you will need to re-wire the behaviour in your framework.
<!--
Multi-Step Form with Validation — markup from the Hoverlab catalog.
This is the block rendered once to HTML and wrapped as a component
file. It is not a port of the React source: the Tailwind classes carry
the design, which is the part that took the work, and they are the same
in every framework.
This block is interactive in React and the handlers are NOT here.
Buttons, toggles and menus render in their initial state and do
nothing until you wire them up.

What each framework gets across the whole catalog — effects convert properly; this rung is markup.
The component, its props, the design tokens it expects and the command that installs it — as one prompt. Paste it into Claude, Cursor, v0 or ChatGPT and what they build around it will match the rest of the catalog instead of inventing its own system.
Want the whole screen instead of this one section? Open a page and copy it entire.
All of them free to read, copy and install — no account, no locked tiles, no watermarked preview. The whole catalog is open, and so are the API and the CLI.
Browse Contact & FormsCopying the code is free. Putting it in client work or a paid product is what Pro is for — the licence, not the access.
A contact form beside the channels that bypass it — a real address, a support link and a response-time promise, which is what makes a form people cannot see into feel worth filling.
One click to rate, everything after it optional — the shape that collects a complaint from someone mid-task who would never open a contact page.
The state every form reaches and none of them illustrate: a focused summary at the top linking to each bad field, validation that waits for submit, and somewhere for the failure that belongs to no field.
A qualifying contact form that asks the three things a first reply needs, and says what happens next before you send it.
A support form that asks for the one thing that halves resolution time — what you already tried — and says when a human will read it.
