LifeSG Web Frontend Engine

Repository for the web frontend engine

• UI components based on React design system
• Form generation via JSON schema
• To see the schema and fields available, visit our Storybook documentation.

The intention of frontend engine is to take out the heavy lifting of form development and offer a collection of common fields so engineers can develop forms quickly. The form will be defined through a JSON schema so non-engineers can customise the form as well.
