Forms: Field Groups starter block
Arrange user inputs into a readable form before connecting submission behavior.
Arrange user inputs into a readable form before connecting submission behavior.
Before you begin
Section titled “Before you begin”- A page with Bootstrap 5 included. Load its JavaScript for collapse, dropdown, tab or dismiss interactions.
Use this as a layout starting point
Section titled “Use this as a layout starting point”Arrange user inputs into a readable form before connecting submission behavior. This reference describes the inserted template. It contains static sample content and no App Connect data bindings or application event handlers.
Edit the inserted parts
Section titled “Edit the inserted parts”Insert the block into a Bootstrap 5 page, then expand it in App Structure. Select the child whose content or styling you want to change; there is no separate block configuration form.
| Part | How to adapt it |
|---|---|
| Headings | Start with the h2 reading “Profile settings”. Replace sample headings with your own content and keep their levels consistent with the surrounding page. |
| Responsive columns | The template uses `col-lg-9`, `col-xl-8`, `col-md-6`, `col-12`. A numeric span is a fraction of the 12-column row; a breakpoint-qualified span applies from that breakpoint upward. Change the column, then check both narrower and wider views. |
| Form | Select the actual form and configure method, destination and field names. The inserted sample is not connected to an application endpoint. Test validation and the success/error result before enabling it. |
| Application buttons | The sample includes 3 buttons without an application event binding. Native submit/reset behavior still applies when those types are used inside forms. Give icon-only buttons an accessible name and connect or remove actions users cannot yet complete. |
Complete the intended behavior
Section titled “Complete the intended behavior”The form has no configured destination. Name fields to match the endpoint, distinguish Cancel from Reset, and connect Save changes to validation and a checked server response. View change history requires its own route or action.
Make one change and check the result
Section titled “Make one change and check the result”Change the first heading from “Profile settings” to a title appropriate to your page, for example “Set up your project”. Preview the page at narrow and wide widths and confirm the text remains readable without clipping. Then replace the remaining sample content and verify every route or control you kept.
Continue with starter blocks
Section titled “Continue with starter blocks”Use the starter-block guide for insertion and adaptation. For live records or user actions, connect the matching App Connect workflow after the static layout is readable.
Check your result
Section titled “Check your result”You can identify the inserted parts, replace sample content and distinguish supplied Bootstrap behavior from application work still to implement.
