Introduction

Take a look at this introduction to have a better idea of what Formity is about.

Overview

Creating a multi-step form in which there are questions dependent on previous answers can be a really complex task. Additionally, the challenges intensify when considering the need to save such forms in a file or a database.

This is where Formity comes in, a solution designed to simplify the process. With Formity, building these kinds of forms is as straightforward as using JSON. Say goodbye to complexities and experience form development like never before.

Installation

To install this package you have to run the following command.

npm install formity expry react-hook-form

As you can see, Formity depends on two packages, Expry and React Hook Form. We suggest you to be a little familiar with these packages before learning about Formity.

Usage

The core of this package is the Formity component. This component is responsible for rendering the form, and we need to provide the following props:

• components: The components that can be used in the form.

• schema: The JSON that defines the form.

• onReturn: The function that is called when the form is submitted.

import { Formity, OnReturn } from "formity";

import components from "./components";
import schema from "./schema";

interface FormProps {
  onReturn: OnReturn;
}

export default function Form({ onReturn }: FormProps) {
  return (
    <Formity components={components} schema={schema} onReturn={onReturn} />
  );
}
