- **[Number Input](number-input.md)** — Accepts numeric data including
  measurements, counts, calculations, and scientific readings, with support
  for integers, decimals, and scientific notation.
- **[Controlled Number](controlled-number.md)** — Deprecated for new forms;
  existing Controlled Number fields remain supported. Prefer "Number Input"
  with minimum and maximum bounds for new templates.
- **[Percentage Slider](percentage-slider.md)** — A slider for integer
  percentages (0–100 by default) with optional step size.
- **[Auto Incrementing Field](auto-incrementing-field.md)** — Generates sequential string
  identifiers such as specimen numbers and catalogue IDs.
- **[Computed Value](computed-value-field.md)** — Derives a number from an
  arithmetic expression over other fields in the same form, updating
  automatically and shown read-only to data collectors.
