While working on a recent project, GeekyAnts devs realised that there was no easy way to build forms for React apps. Yes, there are solutions available but they're not quite optimal. It is difficult to find a single library that provides great UX, speed and features such as interdependency between form fields. That's when we decided to build Formst, a library that allows you to build high-performance, responsive forms for your React apps.
Use 'yarn' or 'npm' to install this library as shown below:
# yarn
yarn add mst-form-creator
# npm
npm add mst-form-creator
Create a form model as shown below:
const TodoForm = createFormModel(
'TodoForm',
{
title: types.string,
description: types.string,
},
{
validation: {
title: ['required'],
description: 'required',
},
}
);
Create an instance of the model:
const todoForm = TodoForm.create({
title: '',
description: '',
});
Add handler for submit
todoForm.onSubmit((formInstance: Instance<typeof createProjectForm>) => {
console.log(formInstance.getFormData());
formInstance.setSubmitting(false);
});
Wrap the components inside MSTForm and use the Field API to render the fields:
<MSTForm formInstance={todoForm}>
<form onSubmit={todoForm.handleSubmit}>
<Field name="title" />
<ErrorMessage name="title" />
<br />
<Field name="description" />
<ErrorMessage name="description" />
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
</MSTForm>
