Handling Forms & User Input

What UI pattern does this code implement?

form.addEventListener('submit', async e => {
  e.preventDefault();
  const submitButton = form.querySelector('button[type="submit"]');
  submitButton.disabled = true;
  try {
    await submitForm(new FormData(form));
  } finally {
    submitButton.disabled = false;
  }
});

Form validation
Submit button debouncing
Submit button disable during submission
This implements the pattern of disabling the submit button during form submission to prevent double submissions. Key features: 1) Prevents multiple submissions while processing, 2) Uses try/finally to ensure the button is re-enabled even if submission fails, 3) Maintains good UX by providing visual feedback that submission is in progress, 4) Works with async operations without leaving the form in a stuck state, 5) Should be combined with visual loading indicators for better user feedback.
