About this Pill-Shaped Form Style

The "pill" or "capsule" shape is a simple yet effective way to modernize a standard form. The entire effect is achieved with a single CSS property: border-radius. By setting this to a large value (e.g., 50px), the corners of the input field are curved into a full semi-circle, creating the distinctive shape. This style is often associated with friendly, consumer-facing brands and SaaS platforms.

This template applies the pill shape not only to the input fields but also to the submit button, creating a cohesive and consistent design language for the entire form.

Features

Modern & Friendly Aesthetic: The soft, rounded shapes are approachable and feel contemporary.
Simple CSS Implementation: Achieved easily with the border-radius property.
Cohesive Design: Applies the style to all form elements for a unified look.
Highly Customizable: Easily change colors and sizes to fit your brand.

Ideal Use Cases

Sign-up and login forms for modern web apps.
Search bars or newsletter subscription forms.
Any UI where a soft and friendly design is a priority.

Dependencies

None. This template uses only pure HTML and CSS.
