JSONForms VS data-driven-forms

I'm currently working on an Android app that requires dynamic form creation based on JSON schema. I came across the website jsonforms.io and was impressed by their framework for generating forms from JSON schema.

We use JsonForms and for multiple forms and its quite powerful & consistant

There's this cool tool called JSON Forms. Basically you specify a schema and a rudimentary form is generated based on that schema with a framework of your choosing (vue, react, angular) with no additional configuration! Sounded cool so I cloned it. Now it looks like a real time saver, but i'm concerned about how I am using an 'imported template' that will probably restrict any customization on my end.

Json Forms: https://jsonforms.io/

Yes, exactly. I did some searching after I posed the question and found this so far https://jsonforms.io/

The best way I found to build form intensive apps is using: https://jsonforms.io/ It's super declarative with JSON Schema and can be easily extended by writing custom widgets. Also it provides good balance between being "battery charged" and freedom of state management.

I agree. RJSF examples work fine but it doesn't scale well to large forms. For a similar approach but better implementation, take a look at https://jsonforms.io/ which also supports multiple frameworks.

Of course in js there's a Library for that: https://jsonforms.io/

Okay, what you describes called data-driven form, which means you form schema reside somewhere else. I strongly suggest using 3rd party framework such as data-driven form. It will make your life much easier.

A longer answer would be yes it is ok BUT what you are doing is coming up with a Domain Specific Language (DSL) for building forms which can be an undertaking both to author and to communicate with other developers. I would suggest using React and javascript to manage the fields if possible and if not look into a library that takes on the task of making a DSL and provides documentation for it (to help communicate to other developers). I found this after a quick search https://data-driven-forms.org/

Data Driven Forms is a open source React library that uses a data driven approach for building React forms. This approach is based on rendering JSON schemas as React forms with all needed functionality provided by the renderer. It includes features such as validation, conditional fields and many more. It helps web developers to write forms much quicker, simpler and to achieve a consistency across the whole application.
