Blitz generate should provide functioning forms for a better scaffolding experience.

[ReadB]

What do you want and why?

There are some bugs here as well but I feel the generate command needs some attention. At the moment blitz generate all will only provide forms with a LabeledTextField component that works with the string, uuid, json?, and datetime types.

When creating a new app and using the generate command to scaffold an idea, it would be great to have a functioning app without modifying any code.

Without any modifications after generating, the following errors occur:

• With int, number, bigint, float, decimal, the form says: Expected number, received string.

• WIth boolean, the form says: Expected boolean, received string.

• With belongsTo:model, the page fails to compile with error Module not found: Can't resolve 'src/core/components/LabelSelectField'. And an additional error since v2.0.2, in the usePaginatedQuery it uses a get query but uses the /src/model/ directory instead of the new /src/app/model/ directory.

• With datetime, it works with the string type if a full ISO 8601 datetime is used. However, this only works after modifying the CreateSchema as there is an extra function call and produces the error TypeError: zod__WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_0__.z.string(...).datetime(...) is not a function

Possible implementation(s)

I'm suggesting a better defaultCodegenConfig with more starter components. This could include:

• working number input
• date picker for datetime
• simple checkbox input for boolean
• select with options for selecting a parent model
• cloned form for creating a child while creating a parent

@ReadB would you be willing to make a PR for this?

It would be great to have a best practice generated by the scaffolding to handle boolean fields and fields of type number. In both cases, I struggle with when to transform the data to string … and when to transform it back … and how to create nice Zod schemas / TS for both.
