Controlled Components • you have more control • easier to
reason about • needed for complex form interactions • recommend by react documentation

<Form> • simple form interface • extensible fields • protection
for double submit • standardized form layout • standardized server responses
None
What is missing? • client side validations • theming •
handling of deep nested forms • tests! • fun features ¯\_(ϑ)_/¯
