Vue-form-generator: How can I help with v3?

[muschottkey]

This is not a bug, or an issue. This is just a ticket to hopefully start a conversation on progressing with development of v3. First, some backstory:

I have a project that needs something similar to vfg. I started using the latest version but found that I had to do too much hacking in order to get the custom layout I needed (something that looks like bootstrap horizontal form layout).

Then I found v3, and although it was in development, I decided to give it a try. After a few modifications, I ported the v2 schemas to work with v3. In the last 1 month that I have been working on this, I have found various bugs and fixed them. There is still quite some work that needs to be done before v3 can be considered release ready. I would like most of the work I did to benefit this project and help move it forward.

I chose not to create a list of PR/MRs, but decided to have a conversation first so that I can get an idea of what is important, what I can help with, if my help is needed, and if my help and work is helpful, what I can work on e.t.c.

I understand that you are all busy, that is why I think that I my help would be useful since I'm working with this at my day work and I'd like to give back some hours here and there.

What do you think?

Cheers,
Cyprian.

I second @muschottkey on this.
We are also using vfg V3 as part of many of our applications. We also would like to contribute somehow...

PR’s are always welcome. Unfortunately, I think the 2-3 devs that were contributing the most to v2/v3 have taken a hiatus. I, for example, am not actively using Vue/VFG in my current project and don’t have personal time to contribute code changes and have just been helping with reviewing PR’s.

I might recommend forking the project, submitting PR’s to VFG officially and merging your changes into your forks master to help with your own projects, and so others can just clone your forks directly as alternatives to VFG if it takes too long for the PR’s to be approved and merged.

@enyosolutions I'd like to see the work you have done because I am sure I have had to do the same work you've so far done to make v3 usable. Could you share a link to your fork/branch? That way we can figure out if we can combine our work into one and create PR's to VFG master from that.

If you'd like so see my working tree, check #v3-wip branch

Am also using V3 in a project that's about to hit production. You guys might have already stumbled upon my GUI project detailed here https://github.com/vue-generators/vue-form-generator/issues/587

I would love for v3 to be officially released at some point.. maybe new contributors could be invited if the previous ones no longer have the time to make this happen

Are the major differences in v3 regarding schema or model or validation? Is there some kind of featue comparison?
