I am currently developing my first app using C:C:FormBuilder too, having
done previous Catalyst projects with HTML::Widget. I think FormBuilder may
become the de facto way to develop Catalyst apps in the future, especially
seeing there is a DBIx::Class::FormBuilder module on the horizon that will
marry FormBuilder to DBIx::Class like DBIx::Class::HTMLWidget does for
HTML::Widget.

Have I missed something? What's FormFu?
