I know that kotti & substance-d use deform extensively.
I really like the demo site for deform2.0a2
<http://deform2demo.repoze.org/>
But deform2 did not change much from alpha since 18 months.
<https://pypi.python.org/pypi/deform> Maybe I missed something.
I do not want add libraries to my application that lost developer
support/attention.
I do not want to spend much (or even any) time to make deform2.X work
with
a more recent Twitter Bootstrap (>=3.2).
I found leaner forms libraries like formvalidation.io that appeal to
me as
well, but I would prefer testing my models/schema/validation in
python.
I really like the schema-driven approach of deform and similar
pyramid/python libraries.
What is the current state of deform with respect to developer
acceptance
and future developer support?
Would you still recommend adding deform/colander to a more recent
pyramid
application?
The quick tutorial for adding forms
<http://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pyramid/en/master/quick_tutorial/forms.html#forms-and-validation-with-deform>
is still telling this story?
What is your opinion?
Kotti always uses the latest versions of all upstream packages, for that
matter: Bootstrap 3.3.4, deform 2.0a2 and colander 1.0. This combination
performs flawlessly out of the box for all the widgets Kotti uses. We
only have a customized RichTextWidget to allow file / image browsing and
uploading.
As Kotti indeed heavily relies upon deform and Bootstrap and is actively
maintained, we will most probably make pull requests for deform if/when
something changes in upcoming versions of Bootstrap that would require
respective changes in deform.
So the bottom line is: deform and colander are actively used and so
stable that no changes were required recently.
HTH,
Andreas
