## What it is
Form is an Objective-C iOS library for building flexible, JSON-driven forms with validations, groups, custom fields, and computed values. It was actively developed from 2014 to 2021 and is now archived as a historical reference.

## Use cases
- build forms in an iOS app from JSON definitions
- share form logic between iOS apps and web clients
- validate form fields like email, phone number, and required text
- create forms with multiple grouped sections
- add custom field types to iOS forms
- compute field values from other fields with formulas

## When to choose
- you maintain a legacy Objective-C iOS app already using Form
- you need JSON-driven forms shared with web clients and can fork/maintain it yourself

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new iOS project in Swift
- you need actively maintained software with ongoing support
- you need SwiftUI or modern declarative form building

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: form-handling, ui-components
- domain: mobile-development, web-development
- platform: -
- tags: objective-c, forms, -driven, deprecated, cocoapods, ios, mobile, swift
