A JavaScript class to simply generate and handle HTML form wizards.
You can find a very simple demo at this link, and the API documentation here.
To install Zangdar, you just have to download zangdar.min.js
in the dist
folder and add a script into your HTML page :
<script src="path/to/zangdar.min.js"></script>
Your have to add this basic CSS to your styles too :
.zangdar__wizard .zangdar__step {
display: none;
}
.zangdar__wizard .zangdar__step.zangdar__step__active {
display: block;
}
Here a basic HTML form with sections to separate wizard parts :
<form id="my-form">
<section data-step="coords">
<input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Your name here...">
<input type="text" name="email" placeholder="Your email here...">
<button data-next>Next</button>
</section>
<section data-step="security">
<input type="password" name="password" placeholder="Your password here...">
<input type="password" name="password_confirm" placeholder="Confirm your password here...">
<button data-prev>Previous</button>
<button data-next>Next</button>
</section>
<section data-step="personal">
<input type="date" name="birthdate" placeholder="Your birthdate...">
<input type="text" name="addresss" placeholder="Your address here...">
<input type="number" name="zipcode" placeholder="Your zipcode here...">
<input type="text" name="city" placeholder="Your city here...">
<button data-prev>Previous</button>
<button type="submit">Send</button>
</section>
</form>
And you just have to instanciate Zangdar with the selector of the form you wan't to handle :
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {
const wizard = new Zangdar('#my-form')
})
And.. voilà ! You have a fully functional wizard ! :)
You can pass an object of options as second class parameter. This is very useful, especially for adding events to the wizard lifecycle.

// Here a treatment after HTML native validation...
},
customValidation(step, fields, form) {
