Dynamic Forms

A comprehensive multi-platform project for dynamic forms with native implementations for Android and iOS, designed to handle complex form workflows with enterprise-grade architecture.

🎯 Project Overview

Dynamic Forms is a sophisticated form management system that dynamically renders forms based on JSON configurations. The project demonstrates modern mobile development practices with Clean Architecture, SOLID principles, and comprehensive testing strategies.

πŸ—οΈ Project Structure

This main repository contains:

  • Shared configurations and documentation
  • JSON schemas for dynamic forms (200-form.json, all-fields.json)
  • Git submodules for native implementations with independent architectures

Submodules

  • dynamic-forms-android/ - Kotlin/Jetpack Compose (Production Ready) - Repository
  • dynamic-forms-ios/ - Swift/SwiftUI (Production Ready) - Repository

Working with Submodules

Initial Clone

git clone --recursive https://github.com/willianpinho/dynamic-forms.git

Clone without submodules (then initialize)

git clone https://github.com/willianpinho/dynamic-forms.git
cd dynamic-forms
git submodule init
git submodule update

Update submodules

git submodule update --remote

Working on a submodule

cd dynamic-forms-android  # or dynamic-forms-ios
# Make changes, commits, etc.
# The submodule is an independent Git repository

Update submodule reference in main project

# After making commits in the submodule
git add dynamic-forms-android  # or dynamic-forms-ios
git commit -m "Update Android submodule to latest version"
