Working with forms as an ecosystem
summary
Shows a concrete stack: reactive_forms plus a reactive forms generator that generates typed form models instead of Map<String,Object>, eliminating casts. Demonstrates a Bricklink‑style registration with ~10 fields, arrayed item lists (add/remove callbacks generated), and a username debounced async validator with spinner. Includes ready-to-drop reactive inputs for Material, Fluent, macOS and Ubuntu, integration with freezed, and generated builders that surface control names at compile time so refactors break the build, not runtime.
