A JavaScript library that takes a JSON Schema and generates an HTML form for editing JSON data, supporting JSON Schema versions 3 and 4. It integrates with popular CSS frameworks like Bootstrap, Spectre, and Tailwind and has no required dependencies.

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
• replace hand-coded forms with schema-based generation
• edit documents with a gui

When to choose

• you need forms generated automatically from existing JSON Schemas
• you want a dependency-free browser library for schema-driven editing
• you need integration with Bootstrap, Tailwind, or Spectre styling
• you're maintaining an existing project already built on -editor

When to avoid

• you're starting a new project and want actively developed alternatives like Jedison
• you need server-side or non-browser JSON editing
• you require JSON Schema draft 6/7+ features beyond versions 3 and 4
• you need a full form framework with custom validation logic outside the schema
