Feature proposal - form data utilities

[AlemTuzlak]

Hey MJ! Not sure where to ask you this so decided to do so through this issue.

In remix-hook-form I have a bunch of utilities I use for parsing formData from requests which can be found here:
https://github.com/forge-42/remix-hook-form/blob/main/src%2Futilities%2Findex.ts

I was wondering would there be any interest from your side to extract these out and make them generic and move them over to a new package in remix-the-web, something like form-data-parsers or something like that. Most of these are already generic functions that take the formData frm the request and parse it into objects, arrays and whatever else and a bunch of other utilities, most of them are documented and tested out and they feel like a good candidate for everybody to use rather than just remix-hook-form users!

I'd like to hear your thoughts on this and if you'd have any interest or value from this!

A parser from FormData to JS objects with nested keys would be useful

Similar to qs package but from FormData instead of a search params string

Right now it's possible to do request.text() and parse the body with qs, but that only works for forms without files, using FormData directly would be more useful for every scenario

@sergiodxa that's the rough idea, I have a utility that works across both a GET/POST request which checks if it's one or the other then parses qs as formData or actual formData, to respect how the data would be submitted without JS in the browser with a GET/POST request
