How do I get started?

There is a working quick start sample HERE

Steps to get started:

1. Create a Blazor project to get started.

2. Add the CG.Blazor.Forms NUGET package to the project.

3. Add @using CG.Blazor.Forms.Attributes to the _Imports.razor file.

4. Add <DynamicForm Model="@Model" OnValidSubmit="OnValidSubmit"/> to the razor component where you want your dynamic form generated. Note that Model is a reference to your POCO object, and OnValidSubmit is a reference to your form's submit handler.

5. Add services.AddFormGeneration(); to the ConfigureServices method of the Startup class.

6. Create your model type. Use attributes from the NUGET package to decorate any properties you want to be rendered on the form. Here is an example:

[RenderValidationSummary()]
[RenderFluentValidationValidator]
public class MyForm
{
	[RenderInputText]
	[Required]
	public string FirstName { get; set; }

	[RenderInputText]
	[Required]
	public string LastName { get; set; }
}

That's pretty much it! You can, of course, get fancier, but that's up to you.
