Domain Driven Forms

The tcomb library provides a concise but expressive way to define domain models in JavaScript.

The tcomb-validation library builds on tcomb, providing validation functions for tcomb domain models.

This library builds on those two and realizes an old dream of mine.

Benefits

With tcomb-form you simply call <Form type={Model} /> to generate a form based on that domain model. What does this get you?

1. Write a lot less HTML
2. Usability and accessibility for free (automatic labels, inline validation, etc)
3. No need to update forms when domain model changes

Flexibility

• tcomb-forms lets you override automatic features or add additional information to forms.
• You often don't want to use your domain model directly for a form. You can easily create a form specific model with tcomb that captures the details of a particular feature, and then define a function that uses that model to process the main domain model.

Thanks so much to Chris Pearce for pointing me in the right direction and for supporting me in the v0.4 rewrite.

Special thanks to William Lubelski (@uiwill), without him this library would be less magic.

Thanks to Esa-Matti Suuronen for the excellent humanize() function.

Thanks to Andrey Popp for writing react-forms, great inspiration for list management.
