Onboarding Forms - Building SaaS #51

In this episode, we added the first form to collect data in the onboarding flow. We used a CreateView and defined all the fields that are needed in the HTML form.

I started by filling in the HTML form structure of the page. Once the dummy version was in place, we changed from a TemplateView to a CreateView and began fixing each configuration error that the new view type reported as missing like missing a model field declaration.

With the form in a working state, I created the next view in the sequence and wired the success state of the form to a redirect to the next step.

At the end of the stream, I talked about the polish that is needed before the page is complete.
