React Desktop is a popular library to bring the native desktop experience to the web. This library provides macOS and Windows OS components. Pin Component is used to allow the users to create a Pin form which takes the user input in the form of a pin. It can be used for OTP verification, etc purposes. We can use the following approach in ReactJS to use the React Desktop macOS Pin Component.

Pin Props:

  • hidden: It is used to set the component visibility.
  • length: It is used to set the length of the pin.
  • margin: It is used to set the outer margin of the component.
  • marginBottom: It is used to set the outer bottom margin of the component.
  • marginLeft: It is used to set the outer left margin of the component.
  • marginRight: It is used to set the outer right margin of the component.
  • marginTop: It is used to set the outer top margin of the component.
  • onChange: It is a callback function when the input changes.
  • reveal: It is used to reveal the characters in the pin.
