The package provides a set of widgets to help with dynamic server-side generation of HTML forms. The following widgets are available out of the box:

- input fields: `Checkbox`, `CheckboxList`, `Color`, `Date`, `DateTimeLocal`, `Email`, `File`, `Hidden`, `Image`, `Number`, `Password`, `RadioList`, `Range`, `Select`, `Telephone`, `Text`, `Textarea`, `Time`, `Url`;
- buttons: `Button`, `ResetButton`, `SubmitButton`;
- group widgets: `ButtonGroup`, `Fieldset`.
- other: `ErrorSummary`.

These themes are available out of the box:

- Bootstrap 5 Horizontal,
- Bootstrap 5 Vertical.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP 8.1 - 8.5.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

The package could be installed with composer:

```
composer require yiisoft/form
```

General usage
-------------

[](#general-usage)

Configure themes (optional):

```
use Yiisoft\Form\ThemeContainer;
use Yiisoft\Form\ThemePath;

ThemeContainer::initialize(
    config: [
        'vertical' => require ThemePath::BOOTSTRAP5_VERTICAL,
        'horizontal' => require ThemePath::BOOTSTRAP5_HORIZONTAL,
    ],
    defaultConfig: 'vertical',
);
```

... and use `Field` helper to create widgets:

```
use Yiisoft\Form\PureField\Field;

echo Field::text('firstName', theme: 'horizontal')->label('First Name')->autofocus();
echo Field::text('lastName', theme: 'horizontal')->label('Last Name');
echo Field::color('favoriteColor')->label('Favorite Color')->value('#3498db');
echo Field::select('sex')->label('Sex')->optionsData(['m' => 'Male', 'f' => 'Female'])->prompt('—');
echo Field::number('age')->label('Age')->hint('Please enter your age.');
echo Field::submitButton('Submit')->buttonClass('primary');
```

The result of executing the code above will be:

```

    First Name

    Last Name

    Favorite Color

    Sex

        —
        Male
        Female

    Age

    Please enter your age.

    Submit

```
