This is not a bug issue or anything, it’s just a recommendation to clearly point out that you need Qwik City if you want to use this library with Qwik. I do not know if there’s any other framework like Qwik City to, as of today, work in a Qwik project, but I did recently run into this new integration for Astro which I started testing on a project of my own.
The thing is that, as my project has to deal with forms, I thought I could integrate this library also into the project to handle them. But just when I got everything to work, I received an error saying that a module from qwik-city couldn’t be found. That’s logical because my project does not use it, it uses Astro with the new Qwik integration.
Why?
My point is that, even though I may be blind, this should be clarified in the docs, to any developer that runs into a similar issue if trying to use the library with only ‘Qwik’ and not ‘Qwik City’. I also assumed it would work because with the other versions like React or Preact, you don’t have any framework dependency, just the library. Lucky for me, it’s not a big deal, so if you don’t find it necessary you can close the issue right away, I only have a simple form, so I can handle manually validating it by myself using Valibot (which, by the way, is awesome! you are a beast @fabian-hiller).
It’s mostly my fault because I could have noticed myself that I needed it by looking into the source code or something, but as I wanted to do a quick test I didn’t. There are examples in the docs where you can see that qwik-city is being used, but I thought that, as I only needed the useForm hook (which doesn’t require anything from that module or, at least, not externally), I could skip it without running into problems.
How?
I think that, even with only renaming the framework dropdown option from ‘Qwik’ to ‘Qwik City’, it would be clear enough.
