You start a form with one of bootstrap_form_with, bootstrap_form_for, or bootstrap_form_tag in a view file. Makes it easier to see the logic of the form, because it's not mixed in with the Bootstrap mark-up.īootstrap_form works like the standard Rails form helpers, and this README assumes you know how they work.Reduces errors, because you're doing less typing.Gets you going faster with Bootstrap, because you don't need to learn all the rules of Bootstrap form mark-up to get started.Some other nice things that bootstrap_form does for you are: A way to escape to the Rails form helpers if you need to do something that bootstrap_form can't do.Many options to modify or augment the generated mark-up.Mark-up for Bootstrap horizontal forms (labels to the left of their fields, like a traditional desktop application), if that's what you want.An easy way to consistently show help text on fields.Automatic mark-up for the required attribute on required fields.One discussion of the challenges and some solutions is here HTML 5 client-side validation and Rails validation out of the box don't really work well together.

Note that this applies to Rails-generated validation messages. You can also put the error messages after the label, or turn off bootstrap_form's validation error handling and do it yourself. Validation error messages below the field they correspond to, by default.bootstrap_forms's form helpers generate the form field and its label and all the Bootstrap mark-up required for proper Bootstrap display. It provides form helpers that augment the Rails form helpers. * Clarify workflow when screenshots changeīootstrap_form is a Rails form builder that makes it super easy to integrate Bootstrap v5-style forms into your Rails application. * Try to avoid double CI run when screenshots change Then, if you do not want the changes, run `git revert HEAD`.
