import {Textarea} from '@primer/react'
Textarea components must always be accompanied by a corresponding label to improve support for assistive technologies. Examples below are provided for conciseness and may not reflect accessibility best practices.
Use the FormControl component to render a Textarea with a corresponding label.
By default, Textarea
can be resized by the user vertically and horizontally. Resizing can be prevented by setting resize
to none
