¹ Technically, you can built most of the features that DreamForm offers yourself using Uniform. For a fair comparison, this table only includes features that can be solved by copying code from the official docs & without writing custom code.

² Since Uniform focuses on form validation, all fields are technically possible, but none ship with pre-built HTML snippets.
