Over the years, I’ve encountered many challenges while building complex forms from scratch—challenges that I believe are common, difficult, and yet often overlooked. These include managing interdependent fields, handling intricate validation rules, and maintain good collaboration between technical and non-technical people. FormML is my attempt to address these pain points.

The project's README goes into more detail, but in short, FormML offers a model-first approach to form development (inspired by Prisma), focusing on ease of use for both developers and non-developers.

Lastly, there is a design question I’d love your input:

FormML has a primitive type called decimal, used for high-precision decimal numbers. Since one of FormML's design principles is to be as readable as possible to non-programmers, I’m considering renaming it to currency. However, currency might feel too narrow and not cover all applications.

What do you think?

- Stick with decimal?

- Switch to currency?

- Support both via aliases?

Looking forward to your thoughts and feedback!
