Overview
Reactive_forms is a Flutter package that implements a model-driven approach to form handling and validation, inspired by Angular Reactive Forms. It enables developers to create dynamic, reactive forms with structured form models, real-time validation, and easy state management. The package supports complex form structures, nested forms, and custom validators, promoting clean and maintainable code. It integrates seamlessly with Flutter's widget tree and provides observable form states for efficient UI updates.
