Best Practices

1. Error Handling: Implement proper error handling and validation for the OTP input.
2. Accessibility: Ensure the component is accessible by testing with screen readers and adding appropriate labels.
3. Security: Never store or log the full OTP on the client-side for security reasons.
4. Timeout: Consider implementing a timeout feature for OTP validity.
5. Resend Option: Provide an option to resend the OTP if the user doesn't receive it.
