Custom Controls Example

This example demonstrates that the default renderers of JSON Forms can be replaced with custom ones. We've replaced the default renderer for integers (which have a maximum value of 5 here) with one displaying stars (at the bottom of the form).

You can read more about custom controls in the Custom renderers section.
