I've used VueFormulate in the past, and it was extremely powerful albeit somewhat bloated. FormKit seems like a step in the right direction. Good Luck!

I wish more frameworks or tools offered a landing page as good as this project.

What's the difference between Free and Pro?

They will apparently (at least) offer new input types such as tag fields. You can find a few references of the pro features in the documentation and guides.

I used vue for a project and encountered a gnarly bug - I have a component which can embed itself recursively, and I pass some variables through the stack to communicate to the root. But if I nest 3 components deep, it actually hangs the tab and crashes chrome! Can’t even debug! Not sure how to even recreate it in a way that’s not proprietary and hence can’t file a bug as well.

FormKit (formerly VueFormulate) team is the most responsive to issues I've ever encountered. Superb documentation and easy to understand apis.

If only all third-party packages/apps were as pleasant to work with as the ones put out by FormKit team.

Why can’t you debug?

Because it doesn’t throw an error, and it hands deep inside the vue code when an even to add one more nested component is triggered.

That sounds like a bug in your code, honestly. Recursive components have been around in Vue since 0.x and they're used in many, many projects.
