Why use Form Builder?
- No-code form building — drag sections and fields in Filament; publish when ready
- Public renderer — self-contained Blade + Livewire UI that works without Filament CSS on the guest side
- Submission inbox — filter, review, archive, and export responses
- Validation & sanitization — Laravel rules on submit; HTML stripped from plain text
- Custom public paths —
/forms/{path}with conflict hashing - Dynamic Fields ready — reuses the same field type catalog when Dynamic Fields is installed
- Pro-ready —
