Input text box?

I’ve been trying to find an input text box in defold but have come up with nothing. Does anything like that exist in Defold?

Defold supports only the most rudimentary gui components: box nodes, text nodes and pie nodes. With these you can create complex gui components such as buttons with different states, input fields, lists, checkboxes and so on.

A very good example of how this can be done can be found in Dirty Larry, a quick’n’dirty GUI system made by @sven. Use it as it is or modify it to suit your needs or simply use it as inspiration for your own gui system.
