Overview
Rendering forms with Django can be painful and not very rewarding. There are some nice solutions
arround like django-floppyforms or
django-crispy-forms but you may want
something a bit less complex.
Formica design is heavily based on Formulation, a very
lightweight, yet powerful, solution based on template blocks. All credits should go to
Curtis Maloney for this impressive and simple idea.


A simple example
Say we have a form somewhere and want to render it in a template.
from django import forms
class MyForm(forms.Form):
email = forms.EmailField(label='Email')
check = forms.BooleanField(label='I really love spam', required=False)
Rendering the form is as simple as:
{% load formica %}

<form method="post">
{% form "formica/base_form.html" %}
{% fields %}
{% endform %}

<p><input type="submit" value="save" /></p>
</form>
Pretty cool isn’t it?
