- Payment, tip, transfer, or budget amounts entered by hand.
- Invoice and expense forms where the currency may change.
- Amount fields that benefit from quick add chips such as +$10.
- Use number-field for quantities and non currency numbers.
- Use slider or price-ladder when people pick from a range rather than type.
- Use scrub-input for design tool style drag adjustments.

A currency amount field that groups digits as you type, holds missing cents as ghosts, scales long amounts to fit, and returns minor units.

- Over a group separator, deletes the digit beside it.
- ArrowDownorArrowUp (on the currency button)
- Opens the currency menu.
- ArrowDownorArrowUporHomeorEnd (in the menu)

- Escape (in the menu)
- Closes the menu and returns to the button.
- The input has role="spinbutton" with aria-valuenow in major units, aria-valuetext as the full currency string, and min and max when set.
- The animated digits are aria-hidden; the real input carries the value, so screen readers and autofill see plain text.
- The range, hint, and error are linked with aria-describedby; limits, chip adds, and currency changes are announced politely.
- The currency menu is a listbox with aria-activedescendant and typeahead.
- Chips and arrow keys roll each digit column in the direction of change while new columns open their width; typing cuts straight to the result so the caret never lags.
- A refused change kicks the amount sideways on a bouncy spring and flashes the range.
- The currency symbol swaps with a short roll while its slot springs to the new width; long amounts scale down to fit on a spring.
- Reduced motion removes the rolls, kick, and width springs; digits fade and sizes jump.
- Under 420px viewport width the amount text drops a size and the padding tightens.
- A ResizeObserver scales the amount down to fit its box instead of scrolling, so long numbers stay readable on phones.
- inputMode is decimal (numeric for zero decimal currencies like JPY), which brings up the number keypad on touch.
- Intl.NumberFormat instances are cached per locale and currency.
- Each digit is its own animated column; amounts are capped at 12 integer digits, which keeps the column count small.
Notes for AI
Give your coding assistant the Markdown reference instead of screenshots.
- Store the value in minor units (integers) to avoid floating point errors; details.major and details.formatted are for display.
- Use for money only. For plain numbers with units use number-field, and for drag-to-adjust values use scrub-input.
- Pass one code in currencies to lock the currency; the code then shows as static text.
- max refuses typing past it; min is only checked on blur, so people can type through smaller amounts on the way.
