React Router Form Library (with Remix Hook Form) — Jake Ruesink

React Router Form Library shows how thoughtful component architecture, anchored by the Wrapper Pattern and powered by remix-hook-form, can take the pain out of form development in modern React apps. Instead of juggling config or wiring up boilerplate, you’ll learn how to build clean, accessible, and fully validated forms with minimal effort.

• Reusable wrapper components like \ abstract away repetitive setup behind intuitive APIs
• `remix-hook-form` bridges React Router’s data APIs with react-hook-form, enabling server-aware, progressive forms
• Shared context + `react-hook-form` + Zod make validation feel effortless
• Accessibility, error handling, and customization come built-in
• You can scale from quick MVPs to robust workflows without rewriting components

This talk is a blueprint for form systems that developers actually enjoy using, quick to start, easy to evolve, and designed for the way Remix apps work.

Venue Instructions

You are welcome to park in the guest spaces on the West side of the building or in the back lot. Please enter the building through the front (on E 6th) in order to check in with Security. You will need to sign your name on a sign-in sheet on arrival. We will be cross checking your name with the Meetup RSVP list, so please RSVP if you are coming.

The meetup will be in the Town Hall immediately to your left. Please refrain from going into any other rooms other than restrooms. H-E-B and Favor are kind enough to host us in this space, and we want to avoid doing anything that would violate their trust and prevent us from meeting in the future 🙂
