Binding nested models to a form
In this recipe, we’ll explore the management of nested models within forms in Blazor. Nested models are complex data structures where a model contains other models as properties. They’re common when we capture detailed or structured information, such as a user profile with multiple addresses or an order with multiple items. However, managing forms with complex and nested data models can get out of hand as the depth of the data structure grows. Keeping track of each input field and ensuring proper binding can be challenging, making the form less maintainable and more prone to errors. The Editor<T> component simplifies the handling of complex object scenarios as it encapsulates the binding of each field to its corresponding property, giving you a narrowed view of the current form context.
Let’s enhance our event creation form with a nested object, allowing us to add information about the event’s duration.
