Formal is simply a form builder that provides the markup typically used around form fields on Hashrocket projects.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'formal'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install formal

Specify the builder option in your form_for parameters

form_for(obj, builder: Formal::FormBuilder)

Label is created with error messaging within label element

Example:

= f.label attribute

When obj.attribute is in an invalid state the markup returned will be like:

<label for='obj_attribute'>Attribute <span class='error'>Error message</span></label>

To make formal the default form builder for your application, just run:

rails g formal:install

This removes the need to add the builder: Formal::FormBuilder option to your form_for
