} from "@/components/ui/form";
import { Input } from "@/components/ui/input";

I did nothing but copy paste

but somehow when I open the project in vscode, I don't get that error, I think it could be the ts configuration
or ts extensions? no idea

Now you have still 2 forms, yes. Remove one more and then you are good to go. When the ts errors are gone when using a different IDE, you might want to take a look into your IDE configuration and maybe even in the „tsconfig“

how else am I going to submit the form if not for the form tag?

ah mb. Haven't seen that. Have you done that?

I don't know if I wanna dedicate more time to this because it works perfectly fine in the browser, so I'm just gonna ignore it as ide issue. The problem can't be in the tsconfig because vscode doesn't flag this as an error. Thank you very much for the assistance
