Just make sure you don't have a form

Submitted Feb 5, 2018

Thats right. Forms, where you enter some data and submit.
No one knows the magic formula for making users happy but one generally accepted way to fail is to have a registration form. To be avoided at any cost.
But hang on. What if form input is the primary way the user interacts with your application?
Say, you have a loan processing system for capturing financial data of people running micro enterprises with limited digital footprint?
We at Artoo are solving this problem of bringing technology to those who need it the most.
Being able to quickly add and customize forms for our clients is business critical for us.
We have engineered our solution so that form rendering and validation logic is abstracted and does not have to be coded separately for every form. This reduces the time for developing and testing our product as it grows.
In this talk, I hope to explain our scalable and maintainable form rendering system powered by Ember.

Outline

  • Mock requirements of a registration form
  • The traditional solution
  • Problems with the traditional solution
  • Using Ember patterns to solve these problems
