Form Builder Component

[Daniel]

I would like rto see a form builder component like the form builder in site finity that we could use for our sites.  Does this exist?

[Leeden]

Hi, we are desperately in need of a form builder, it will be great help if u can build a form-builder especially for React

[Rumen]

Hi Leeden,

Thank you for your feature request!

I am afraid that a React form builder would be a difficult task since in React there is still no standard for a data model that someone should follow in order to make a builder.

What we currently offer is React Form Guidelines with examples.

Hey support, thank you for your reply.

We are hoping for a form-builder like this https://kiho.github.io/react-form-builder/ .

Hi Leeden, Thank you for sharing the example. Currently, there are no immediate plans to create such a tool as there is not a huge demand yet from the community.

Nevertheless, the version you have shared is with an MIT license, so you can fork the repo and adapt it to work with the Telerik form controls instead of the native ones as long as you comply with the licenses' requirements.

Hi Daniel,

Currently we don't have plans for such component, but I logged this for future discussion. Could you please share what do you expect from such component in terms of features?

Your points have been updated.

All the best,

I am looking for a form builder like microsoft dynamics crm form builder.  With it you can choose a table for example Accounting, then
drag and drop form elements to build a new databound accounting form.  Also take a look at jotform, http://www.jotform.com/ that would
be similiar but add the ability to databind controls to tables.  By designing the form you are creating the actual aspx page that is the form.
Thanks for taking a look!

Hello Daniel,

Are there any updates regarding this? I'm interested too!

@Daniel: Which course did you take? Did you end up creating your own or used a pre existing one?

Hello,

The requested feature is a bit out-of-the scope of RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX controls because they are UI controls which the developer can integrate in web sites, but not full blown CMS system as Sitefinity which you can use to create web sites.

This functionality is partially supported by RadEditor for ASP.NET AJAX, which offers an Insert Form Element dropdown and Node Inspector module for setting the properties of the form elements: http://screencast.com/t/Bkjto1JwPRm8.

how about something like mentor-logics form/survey builder?

[Rumen]

Hello,

As explained in my earlier post our development is concentrated mainly on implementing new controls and supporting the existing ones. Nevertheless, if we start to offer end-to-end solutions as the requested mentor-logic form/survey builder, we will definitely have in mind your feature request.

Kind regards,

Hi Rumen,

I understand completely what you are trying to say here and at least some ideas for the form builder design using Rad controls may help many in the industry including me.

Most of form builders are built using Jquery or any client technologies now a days how one can leverage the same with Rad toolkit.

Thanks in Advance.

Jay
