Link

Introduction

The Link component, as the name suggests, creates a hyperlink to another webpage, email address, or file. It allows users to navigate to a different location by interacting with the link. The Link component can be customized to represent a text element or a custom component on the form, enabling you to create interactive elements that trigger specific actions or behaviors.

By customizing the Link component, you can also improve the accessibility and usability of your form, making it easier for your users to navigate and interact with. The following introduces and describes properties and options presented for the link component customization.
