What are common pitfalls with input events?

Handling input events can be tricky, and several common pitfalls can lead to unexpected behavior in web applications. Here are some common issues:

• Overusing event listeners: Attaching too many event listeners can lead to performance issues. Use throttling or debouncing to manage input events efficiently.
• Ignoring input types: Different input types (e.g., text, checkbox, range) can behave differently. Always ensure you're checking the correct type of input.
• Not validating input: Failing to validate user input can lead to errors or security vulnerabilities. Always sanitize and validate input data.
• Handling events incorrectly: Mismanagement of events (e.g., using input event on text fields when you only want to capture blur events) can lead to user experience issues.
• Falling behind on state updates: Updating application state simultaneously with input events without ensuring synchronization can lead to bugs.
