What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-29, confidence not recorded

A JavaScript library that generates HTML forms from JSON Schema definitions, supporting JSON Schema v3 and v4 with integrations for popular CSS frameworks. This original repository is deprecated and unmaintained; development continues at -editor/-editor.

Use cases

  • generate html forms from schema
  • build a settings editor driven by a schema
  • let users edit config files in the browser
  • create schema-validated form inputs without writing markup
  • integrate editing into a web app with bootstrap styling

When to choose

  • you need schema-driven form generation in the browser with no dependencies
  • you're on a legacy stack already using this library and JSON Schema v3/v4

When to avoid

  • starting a new project - use the maintained fork -editor/-editor instead
  • you need JSON Schema draft 6+ support or bug fixes
  • you need server-side rendering or a framework-native form solution
