Creating a form layout with django-crispy-forms

The django-crispy-forms Django app allows you to build, customize, and reuse forms using one of the following CSS frameworks: Uni-Form, Bootstrap 3, Bootstrap 4, or Foundation.

You define form layout in the Python code and need not worry about how each field is presented in HTML. Moreover, if you need to add specific HTML attributes or wrapping, you can easily do that too. All of the markup used by django-crispy-forms is located in templates that can be overwritten for specific needs.

In this recipe, we will create a nice layout for the frontend form to add or edit ideas using the Bootstrap 4, popular frontend framework for developing responsive, mobile-first web projects.
