Skip to main content

The <textarea> element behaves similarly to a text input in Svelte — use bind:value to create a two-way binding between the <textarea> content and the value variable:

<textarea bind:value={value}></textarea>

In cases like these, where the names match, we can also use a shorthand form:

<textarea bind:value></textarea>

This applies to all bindings, not just textareas.
