I've been playing with it for the past ~40 minutes and i really like it.

Can't wait to use it on a real project soon. In fact, i might start converting some older things to it in spare time.

The website and docs are absolutely amazing, best i've seen in a long time. Thank you for doing this!

This looks great. How about a comparison against https://final-form.org/react ?

Great thanks. One other helpful thing would be to start a project full of pre-wrapped components for various frameworks.

It would be lovely to just yarn add something that would give me Material-UI components already set up. I'm sure others would love a Bootstrap version... etc. The more you can lower the barriers to entry, the better.

By the way I did have a folder of examples as well. Quite lot of them: https://github.com/react-hook-form/react-hook-form/tree/mast... with codesandbox link too

Sure, I've seen examples, but that is different than what I'm talking about. I want components. =) For example, with react-final-form, I wrote a thin wrapper for Material-UI component (example [1]).

While it didn't take me that long to do, it does have some weird edge cases that I had to google around for. It would be nice to not have to figure this stuff out with your framework too and would encourage me to try it out more quickly.

I know that formik and redux-forms are popular, but react-final-form and your framework seem to have a lot of overlap. Both seem to be pretty well done.

That sounds like a great idea! Maybe I should set up some quick templates.
