Argues that native form data is insufficient and shows a concrete alternative: FormKit implements a form tree that produces structured JSON (objects and arrays), auto-tracks validation/state, and eliminates prop drilling. Demonstrates a working CMS-style editor built with Vue using repeater components and dynamic section maps, reusing small components without extra bindings, and submitting already-structured data. Claims reduced boilerplate, better accessibility via built-in inputs, and successful demos of nested groups, lists, and cross-field validation.
