Form Modeling within VS Code? #88

Right now, in order to model forms, we use Camunda Modeler, which consists of the different pieces of form-js combined into one desktop application that is meant to be a working environment for the Camunda system (including Forms plus Camunda-flavored DMN/ BPMN).

This isn't ideal for two reasons:

  1. It is the only part of the development process for an eligibility screener that can't be handled within VS Code.
  2. It is confusing to use a tool that not only models forms, but also models DMN/BPMN in a way that is incompatible with this project.

There exists a VS Code extension that puts the editor portion of form-js inside of VS Code, but this "playground" documentation seems to point more directly at a replacement for Camunda Modeler.

  • Confirm that form-js playground provides an environment analogous to Camunda Modeler.
  • Create a minimal VS Code extension that loads the playground and serves as the default editor for .form files
