Laravel Form Builder (mhriad/laravel-form)
==========================================

[](#laravel-form-builder-mhriadlaravel-form)

A lightweight, drop-in Form Builder for Laravel 10 & 11 — a safe, minimal replacement for the LaravelCollective Form:: API. It provides common Form:: helpers (open, close, text, email, password, textarea, select, checkbox, radio, file, submit, etc.) so you can keep your existing Blade views without rewriting forms.

What does this package do?
--------------------------

[](#what-does-this-package-do)

This package implements a small, focused Form Builder that:

- Recreates the most commonly used features of LaravelCollective\\Form using the same facade/API style (Form::...) so existing Blade templates continue working.
- Automatically handles CSRF tokens, HTTP method spoofing (PUT/PATCH/DELETE), and multipart/form-data for file uploads.
- Supports:
    - Basic inputs: text, email, number, password, hidden
    - textarea, file
    - select (arrays & collections)
    - checkbox, radio
    - submit, reset
- Provides old() value handling, simple model binding via Form::model(), and safe HtmlString output.
- Helps large projects upgrade Laravel versions (10/11) without rewriting forms.

Benefits of using this package
------------------------------

[](#benefits-of-using-this-package)

- Zero view changes — keep using Form::open, Form::text, etc.
- Laravel 10/11 compatible — works with modern PHP versions.
- Lightweight & dependency-free.
- Secure — auto-escapes values & inserts CSRF/method fields.
- Extendable — easy to customize.
- Safe migration path for legacy projects.
