Installation

install-package FormFactory install-package FormFactory.AspMvc install-package EmbeddedResourceVirtualPathProvider * (or you can install FormFactory.Templates if you don't want to use the EmbeddedResourceVirtualPathProvider)

For ASP.NET MVC Core

install-package FormFactory install-package FormFactory.AspNetCore configure core to serve embedded files - see startup.cs lines 36 and 60

For both

Add the assets to your page <link href="/Content/FormFactory/FormFactory.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/> <script src="/Scripts/FormFactory/FormFactory.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

How to use it

Inside an cshtml file: @FF.PropertiesFor(someObject).Render(Html);

.PropertiesFor(someObject) will reflect over the someObject and create an enumerable of PropertyVm objects, and .Render(Html) will render each object out the page
