Task 4.1: Create a view element for input

Create view element for input, which is a single line text input, in contrast with a textarea, which is a text box.

Use a similar API for the Input module as is used in Textarea.

The HTML can look like this:

    div [ class "form-element" ]
        [ label [ class "label" ]
            [ span [ class "label-text" ] [ text "Label" ]
            , Html.input
                [ class "input"
                , classList [ ( "error", True ) ]
                , value "Some text"
                , onInput msg
                ]
                []
            ,
            div [ role "alert", ariaLive "assertive" ]
                [ p [ class "error-message" ] [ text "Error message" ] ]
            ]
        ]

Task 4.2 Add a username to a comment (using Input)

The endpoint for POST-ing a comment also supports a "username" field, which is a string.

Task 4.3

Make the username, and the comment text, a form, using the way to make forms from this repo. You can check out the tags in that repo to see a progression of how the form is built.
