Hi,
Does anyone know if there is something like Form.io Form builder in Clojure?
Does that technology (form builder -> json form as data -> render form with library) make sense?
To me it does.
I think it takes away a lot of boiler plate and can build a lot of generic forms or prototype them faster than what we can code by hand.
I also think it lends itself to easier maintenance.
The company behind form.io offer a service using this technology:
- you build your form in their platofrm and they are persisted in db
- you can reference the form via url in your app - one line of js / html and it is rendered
- they offer data persistence for you form in their services
- they can use the forms to also have basic crud functionality
