Bootstrap Form Builder

Warning: Currently using Bootstrap `v. 2.3.1` 🐬 (Not Bootstrap 3 ready.)

What's this?

A Drag-and-drop form builder for twitter bootstrap.

Where can I see it in action?

It's hosted on github pages here.

Notes

For development & debugging change the data-main for the require script tag in index.html to point at assets/js/main.js. (Look just before the closing <body> tag!)
Once done, change it back to build for production using the build.js script in the assets/js/lib folder and r.js. Then revert to assets/js/main-built.js
The full command is r.js -o assets/js/lib/build.js which should be run from the base directory.

Adding new form elements

In the js/data/ folder are yaml files, each of which corresponds to a tab in the form builder.
If you just want to add a new element you need to:
- describe it in one of these files
- parse the yaml to json using parse.rb in the same folder
- create a corresponding template in the templates/snippet directory
- add the template to snippet-templates.js
If you want to add a new tab, you'll also need to adjust the app.js file to make sure the tab is loaded.

Don't forget to switch to main.js rather than main-built.js, or the changes you make before compiling with require.js won't show up!
