force:inputField

An abstract component that provides a concrete type-specific input component implementation based on the data to which it is bound.

Represents an input field that corresponds to a field on a Salesforce object. This component respects the attributes of the associated field. For example, if the component is a number field with 2 decimal places, then the default input value contains the same number of decimal places. Bind the field using the value attribute and provide a default value to initialize the object.

1<aura:attribute name="contact" type="Contact" 
2                default="{ 'sobjectType': 'Contact' }"/>
3<force:inputField aura:id="contactName" 
4                  value="{!v.contact.Name}"/>

Use a different input component such as ui:inputText if you're working with user input that does not correspond to a field on a Salesforce object.
