##What is it?

  • Create forms in a matter of minutes
    • (you may not need to add "s" to minutes).
  • Don't limit your form to a single column template
    • (up to 3 controls per line).
  • generated forms use bootstrap
    • (until now the most popular front end framework)
  • based on amazing and ✨ angular formly

###Easy Form Generator : Step way

Step way version is the most accomplished and stable version.

  • cross browser compatible
  • responsive (not sure it will be used a lot but you could create a form on your smartphone with the step way version).
  • production friendly

  • Step way visual preview here : previewstepway.png

###Easy Form Generator : drag and drop way (BETA)

Drag and drop way version (currently in BETA) is more fun and faster to design a form

  • drag control then drop control
  • right click to open edit panel

Drag and drop way is still in development.

Chrome will give you the best experience with drag and drop version. You may encounter unexpected behaviours with other navigators.

      eda-easy-form-generator-model="_MODEL_"
