})
export class AppComponent {
  loginForm: FormGroup;

  constructor(private formBuilder: FormBuilder) {
    this.loginForm = this.formBuilder.group({
      username: ['', [Validators.required]],
      password: ['', [Validators.required]],
    });
  }

  login(event: Event): void {
    alert(
      `You have logged in: \nUser: ${
        this.loginForm.get('username').value
      }\nPassword: ${this.loginForm.get('password').value}`
    );
  }
}
