Forms are used to submit user data on websites and web applications. Forms can be simple such as a feedback form and complex such as placing an order form. It can be a simple one-page form or a multipage form.

Accessible forms make the task of inputting the information an equitable experience for people with different types of disabilities.

A well-designed form makes the experience intuitive for users while inputting the data.
