Django-pony-forms helps you to write better html for your Django forms.

Read the documentation on readthedocs

1: Better form html by default

The form html that Django produces is not very nice or useful. For example, the default output of a Django form is a table.

Just mixin PonyFormMixin to produce better html:

class ExampleForm(PonyFormMixin, forms.Form): name = forms.CharField()

This produces the following html:

<div class="form-row row-name"> <label for="id_name">Name</label> <input type="text" id="id_name" name="name" /> </div>

2: Write your own form templates

You can also write your own form templates:

class ExampleForm(PonyFormMixin, forms.Form): name = forms.CharField() form_template = 'my_form.html' row_template = 'my_row.html'

my_form.html:

<div class="my_form"> {{ hidden_fields }} {{ top_errors }} {{ rows }} </div>

The package is tested with Django 2.2 - 3.1 and Python 3.6 - 3.8.
