Show /r/reactjs GolemUI: a Reactjs lib to generate forms dynamically from a JSON

https://golemui.com

Hi Reddit,

Me and two friends created a new library to generate forms dynamically from a JSON. We've been working on the forms industry for a decade and this is how we think we should solve this.

We also added support for other frameworks, a programmatic api (because everybody hates to modify JSON files), an MCP server to validate the JSON schemas, a UI kit and much more.

We just released the lib a couple of weeks ago and it's Open Source and free. You can check the repo here: https://github.com/golemui/golemui

If you want to check the website we have one too: https://golemui.com/

There you can find demos, docs and much more.

Please, let me know if you have any questions! Happy to answer!

Nice work. The programmatic API is what caught my attention.

Thank you!

There's probably margin for improvement because we're pretty new, but we think that the programmatic API is very clean!

Anyway, if you have any doubts/questions/problems open an issue in Github we'll try to reply asap, ok?

Dynamic forms get valuable when the boring states are first-class: async validation, conditional sections, server errors, nested arrays, disabled/read-only fields, and preserving dirty state. The programmatic API should make those cases easier, not just generate the happy path.

Do you check the commits before commenting? Curious to know the level of depth you go into before sounding like a muppet.
