Can’t speak about Vue, but that’s pretty much the recommended pattern for most input fields in React. But, as others have commented, it might be prudent to leave password inputs completely uncontrolled, i.e. let the browser do its normal thing for updating the DOM based on user input.

Unfortunately, that’s very inconvenient with React because you’ll have to start thinking about dom elements lifecycle separately of the react app lifecycle.

Definitely. It’s going to be a struggle to implement things like password confirmation validation or a real-time password strength indicator.
