How To Create A Login Page With HTML And CSS

Signup and registration forms on your website can generate sales, lead generation, and customer growth.

The majority of websites use HTML5. HTML is a language used to communicate on the Internet. You should start at the beginning when learning a programming language.

In this article, I'll show you how to create a simple login form in HTML and CSS, so that you can use it right away.

Steps to Follow:

1) Create a Project Folder and open it up in an IDE of your choice and link HTML with CSS with the below code

<head> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" /> </head> 
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

2) Next, create a structure for the login page using HTML

<!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8" /> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" /> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="ie=edge" /> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" /> <title>Login Form Demo</title> </head> <body> <div class="login-wrapper"> <form action="" class="form"> <h2>Login</h2> <div class="input-group"> <input type="text" name="loginUser" id="loginUser" required /> <label for="loginUser">User Name</label> </div> <div class="input-group"> <input type="password" name="loginPassword" id="loginPassword" required /> <label for="loginPassword">Password</label> </div> <input type="submit" value="Login" class="submit-btn" /> </form> </div> </body> </html> 
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

3) Next, we are adding CSS to style our login page

* { margin: 0; padding: 0; box-sizing: border-box; } body { background-size: cover; font-family: sans-serif; } .login-wrapper { height: 100vh; width: 100vw; display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; } .form { position: relative; width: 100%; max-width: 380px; padding: 80px 40px 40px; background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); border-radius: 10px; color: #fff; box-shadow: 0 15px 25px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5); } .form::before { content: ""; position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 50%; height: 100%; background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.08); transform: skewX(-26deg); transform-origin: bottom left; border-radius: 10px; pointer-events: none; } .form img { position: absolute; top: -50px; left: calc(50% - 50px); width: 100px; background: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8); border-radius: 50%; } .form h2 { text-align: center; letter-spacing: 1px; margin-bottom: 2rem; color: white; } .form .input-group { position: relative; } .form .input-group input { width: 100%; padding: 10px 0; font-size: 1rem; letter-spacing: 1px; margin-bottom: 30px; border: none; border-bottom: 1px solid #fff; outline: none; background-color: transparent; color: inherit; } .form .input-group label { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; padding: 10px 0; font-size: 1rem; pointer-events: none; transition: 0.3s ease-out; } .form .input-group input:focus + label, .form .input-group input:valid + label { transform: translateY(-18px); color: white; font-size: 0.8rem; } .submit-btn { display: block; margin-left: auto; border: none; outline: none; background: #ff652f; font-size: 1rem; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 1px; padding: 10px 20px; border-radius: 5px; cursor: pointer; } .forgot-pw { color: inherit; } #forgot-pw { position: absolute; display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; top: 0; left: 0; right: 0; height: 0; z-index: 1; background: #fff; opacity: 0; transition: 0.6s; } #forgot-pw:target { height: 100%; opacity: 1; } .close { position: absolute; right: 1.5rem; top: 0.5rem; font-size: 2rem; font-weight: 900; text-decoration: none; color: inherit; } 
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
