When developing Redwood applications in Oracle Visual Builder Studio, custom fields are often created without predefined semantic types (such as Website or Email). As a result, validation rules and display behaviour must be configured explicitly.

In these situations, Field Templates help define specific semantic types, enabling you to leverage built-in data validations and ensure the data remains organised and consistent. At the same time, they enhance the user experience by making the application more intuitive and user-friendly.

This guide provides a step-by-step approach to creating Field Templates in Oracle Visual Builder Studio.
