Kuika's Tooltip element is used to provide information in the user interface. It usually appears when an element is hovered over or clicked to provide more information about that element. Tooltip elements help users understand specific content and enrich the interaction. For example, they can be used to explain the function of a button or specify the requirements of a form field. In this tutorial, you will learn how to use the Tooltip element to enhance the user experience in your application.

The Tooltip element is only supported in web applications.
