Is Formik still in active development?

Open derweili opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

I have not seen any new releases for one year. The blog post anouncing the next version formik 3 alpha is about two years old. No update since then.

So I'm wondering if formik is still in active development?

Are there any maintainers working at formik?

I liked using formik in the past but I don't want to build a new project on a abandoned library.

The short answer is no. There are community efforts in releasing a fork of Formik but so far nothing has materialized.

I recommend starting with react-hook-form (react-final-form also looks like it is on life support although it is receiving updates). It's such a shame as I find Formik's ergonomics to be the best.

I was wondering about the same as I ran into this error "https://github.com/jaredpalmer/formik/issues/3252" and saw it was already around one year old. A pity.

We built https://github.com/witbybit/react-recoil-form to maintain the simplicity of controlled components while rendering only the fields that actually change. We use it for our internal projects and we open sourced it in the hope that others might find it useful too. Personally, I found formik API to be nicer than react-hook-form. I switched to react-hook-form but was unable to use it beyond a certain point - react-recoil-form so far has proven to be a good decision for us in terms of simplicity and flexibility.

In light of Formik's lack of development updates, I started writing my own form library that I just launched a v1 of:

https://houseform.dev

I'd love to hear anyone's feedback on it (in the project's GitHub issues) good or bad.
