Show HN: React Hook Form – Simple Form Validation

hey, nice lib you got there :) When I was deciding the API, I did have the idea of just collecting form input automatically (similar to forn), but there are few reasons which lead to the final decision:

1. Support React controlled component. eg some of the popular component libs, they are wrapped input inside their component and it's hard to predict which to include during the form submit.

2. React Native <3

3. Attach validation rules, messages and async validation on the individual field level.

Ha thanks! You described perfectly the limitations of `forn` and why I only use it for simpler forms. React Native is a big pain from tine to time though I barely use it. I also made https://picnicss.com/ so I'm used to use the native form elements underneath and the rest being just a pretty wrap. But yeah, as soon as I add a 3rd party form lib all goes to hell and `forn` doesn't work well anymore.

I'll try it next time I have to deal with React Native!
