Forms and Widgets

Viewflow separates form logic from HTML rendering. You define field layout in Python. The template handles the HTML.

Standard Django forms mix Python and HTML. You end up with widget attributes scattered across your code, or templates full of conditionals. Viewflow keeps them separate: Python controls which fields exist and their order, templates control how they look.

Viewflow renders forms using Google Material Web Components. The <vf-form/> web component handles form submission with Hotwire/Turbo, so pages don’t reload after submit. You get single-page app behavior without writing JavaScript.
