Hi everyone,
I’m a total beginner and just started learning Homey app development today.
I’m trying to create the simplest pairing page, but the Homey components like `` and `` for IP and Port just don’t show up.
Here is my `driver.compose.json`:
```json
{
"id": "wifi-light-v2",
"name": {
"en": "WiFi Smart Bulb v2"
},
"class": "light",
"capabilities": [
"dim",
"onoff"
],
"platforms": [
"local"
],
"connectivity": [
"lan"
],
"pair": [
{
"id": "enter-credentials",
"type": "html",
"name": {
"en": "Enter Info"
},
"description": {
"en": "Please enter IP and Port"
}
}
]
}
```
And here is my `enter-credentials.html`:
```html
Enter WiFi Bulb Info
Enter WiFi Bulb Information
```
And here is my `directory structure`:
```plaintext
📁 .homeycompose
📄 app.json
📁 capabilities
📁 discovery
📁 drivers
📁 settings
📁 templates
📁 flow
📁 actions
📁 conditions
📁 triggers
📁 locales
📁 screensavers
📁 signals
📁 433
📁 868
📁 ir
📁 drivers
📁 wifi-light-v2
📁 assets
📁 images
📄 device.js
📄 driver.compose.json
📄 driver.js
📁 pair
📄 enter-credentials.html
```
Thanks in advance — looking forward to learning from you all!

Where did you find that `` and `` are a thing? I can’t find any reference to those tags on [the HTML & CSS Styling page](https://apps.developer.homey.app/advanced/custom-views/html-and-css-styling) (please don’t say “ChatGPT” 🙏🏻)

Ah, you’re absolutely right — I just realized those tags aren’t part of the official docs .
To be honest, I was using plain HTML at first, and when the inputs didn’t respond as expected, I turned to GPT for help. It suggested using `` and ``, and I went with it without double-checking the documentation. That was totally on me — I rushed ahead instead of taking time to explore the SDK properly.
Thanks a lot for pointing it out. I really appreciate the nudge to slow down and dig into the docs first. Lesson learned .
