Multi-step responsive forms

Overall forms are a different beast than the rest of your application and they require special architectural considerations. I don't recommend over-engineering your form solution with dynamic templates or route-enabled components. By definition, the different parts of a form are tightly coupled. From the perspectives of maintainability and ease of implementation, creating one giant component is a better strategy than using some of the aforementioned strategies and over-engineering.

We will be implementing a multi-step input form to capture user profile information in a single component. I will be covering my recommended technique to split forms up into multiple components later in the chapter in the Reusable form parts and scalability section.

Since the implementation of the form changes dramatically between this section and later in the chapter, you can find the code for the initial version on GitHub at projects/ch11/src/app/user/profile...
