It makes your life easy when you develop forms and your app uses mongoid.

Cool features

Works with localized fields!

  # app/models/category.rb
  field :name, localize: true
  field :content, localize: true

  # views/category/_form.rb
  = form_for @category, wrapper: :default, html: { class: 'form-horizontal' } do |f|
    # text_field type by default
    # generates input fields for each locales in your config.i18n.available_locales
    = f.localized :name
    
    # pass text_area type and some class for example
    # generates text_area fields for each locales in your config.i18n.available_locales
    = f.localized :content, :text_area, class: "tinymce"
    
    ...

Can show flag block with each localized fields

config/initializers/mongoid_form_config.rb

  ...
  # this option add after label text "<div class=\"flag flags-en\" />" to each locale fo localized fields 
  # you should styling .flag and .flags-en (.flags-ru etc.) in your css.
  flag_for_localized  true
  ...
