Bootstrap

Suppose your form looks like this:

html
<form class="row g-3">
  <div class="col-md-4">
    <label for="name" class="form-label">First name</label>
    <input type="text" class="form-control" id="name" value="">
    <div class="invalid-feedback"></div>
  </div>
  <div class="col-md-4">
    <label for="email" class="form-label">Last name</label>
    <input type="email" class="form-control" id="email" value="">
    <div class="invalid-feedback"></div>
  </div>
  <div class="col-12">
    <button class="btn btn-primary" type="submit">Submit form</button>
  </div>
</form>

To prepare, you will need to do the following:

  1. Add data-error="*" attributes for elements that will be displayed with the error text.
  2. For FormIt compatibility, placeholders with values and errors must be specified.
  3. Since Bootstrap needs to add is-invalid class when invalid status, you need to specify is-invalid in the fetchit.frontend.input.invalid.class system setting, but in this case this value is the default.

INFO

Markup validators still swear by the empty action attribute, so you must specify a link to the page in it.
