To get the value of an input field in JavaScript, you can use the value property of the HTMLInputElement object.

Here is an example:

<input type="text" id="myInput">

<script>
// Get the input element
var input = document.getElementById("myInput");

// Get the value of the input element
var inputValue = input.value;

console.log(inputValue);
</script>

You can also use the value property to set the value of the input field:

<input type="text" id="myInput">

<script>
// Get the input element
var input = document.getElementById("myInput");

// Set the value of the input element
input.value = "Hello, World!";
</script>
