It's a new renderer set! Last week we published JSON Forms v2.5.1 containing our new Vue 3 and Vue 2 vanilla renderer sets. Big thanks to headwire.com who partly sponsored the new renderers!
We also have two new renderers for React Material: boolean toggles and multiple choice (array of enum values). Other changes include fixes for the Angular renderers as well as improvements to the core framework. Check out the detailed change list.

JSON Forms Architecture

JSON Forms has a modular architecture and can be customized on every level. The core functionality is pure Javascript and therefore independent from any UI framework. We offer bindings for React, Angular and Vue. For more information see here.

JSON Forms is a JSON Schema based approach for creating forms. It comes with off the shelf support for React, Angular and Vue.
