Features

PLEASE DON'T ACTUALLY USE THIS IN IT'S CURRENT STATE!

The way this is setup to save it to save a .json file in a document library containing both the forms config and the values, this is a very unstructured method of storing data! - you really should implement another save method!

---

You have the option to edit the raw JSON in the property pane, from here you'll also set the document library where the JSON files are stored

---

Another feature is conditional fields (only for some of the field types)

It allows you to show/hide fields based on other fields, for instance a "fill in" choice option!

---

Lastly of the field types I'll call out here is the "Group" field this allows you to 'group' fields in either direction (is also a way to add several fields side a conditional field)
