Custom validation class attributes
By simply using the edit form, input components, and DataAnnotationValidator
, the framework will automatically add classes to the components when it is and isn’t valid.
By default, these classes are .valid

and .is-invalid
, and the list of class names must also include .form-control
to get the proper styles.

- In the
SharedComponents
project, inside theResuableComponents
folder, add a new class calledBootstrapFieldCssClassProvider.cs
. - Open the new class and add the following code:
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Forms; namespace SharedComponents.ResuableComponents...
