A (much) better way to validate forms in OutSystems

Better Forms is a simple and lightweight component to dramatically simplify your form validations.

Better Form allows you to:

Seamless validate all field types (including widgets that don't have the IsValid and ValidationMessage attributes like OSUI dropdowns)
Group related validations
Easily reuse validators across different forms
Dramatically reduce the amount of code needed to validate a form
Declare multiple validation conditions for each field with precedents
Ensure a consistent validation approach in your team
Reduce complexity and time required to validate forms

Release notes (1.2.0)

🆕 Form_Validate now is also available for server side validations
⬆️ Form_Validate now returns a list of Issues
⬆️ Form_Validate has a new option 'ShortCircuit' that allows you to stop validation at the first invalid input (instead of always validating all fields)

I really enjoyed the developer experience using Better Forms. Not having to manually call multiple client actions or implement extensive client-side validations with complex if logic, especially for the different dropdown variants provided by OutSystems UI, makes the whole validation process much cleaner, simpler, and more maintainable.

Custom Input Masks uses a javascript library which creates an input mask. An input mask helps the user with the input by ensuring a predefined format. This can be useful for dates, currencies, numbers, phone numbers, emails, urls ... Using input masks you’ll get better and more consistent data, and it will be a lot easier for your users to read and enter that data.
