This little extension was created because I did not find any extesion that satisfied my needs as a time tracker and allowed me to set limits on certain websites.

Also they all looked quite dated and I thought that was a good excuse to learn how develop a browser extension.

Well… anyone that has been using brew in macOS for some time will have encountered the issue of doing a simple brew list and discovering loads of packages they have never heard of. Often this is the result of installing some packages that bring dependecies, but since brew does not uninstall them when you delete the package they came with, they will hang around for ever basically.

So why write yet another form utility you might ask? First off, I don’t like the Formik approach. In my humble opition formik is very verbose and requires lots of boilerplate. Also does not work with hooks. react-hook-form is a very cool library and it is the main inspiration for formhero. It does almost everything right… typescript, no deps, small, concise.

The problem that I found while using it was that 3rd party ui libs like Ant Design or Fabric UI do not always have the standart onChange or value props in their components. That is where react-hook-form starts falling apart. This is what formhero tries to address in the most minimalistic way possible, with as little code as needed. All in pure typescript and no deps.

This plugin was created after I was unsatisfied with the existing “default” drone plugins as I needed always more than one.
It supports setting env variables at the host and compresses the files in a tar ball for upload.
