• Create a TypeScript file and import the Input modules from ej2-inputs library as shown below.

import {Input} from '@syncfusion/ej2-inputs';

• Pass the HTML Input element as parameter to the createInput method.

• You can also add the icons on the input by passing buttons property value with the class name e-input-group-icon as parameter to the createInput method.

        properties: {
