FarCry Builder is a tool to help you quickly create new FarCry content types or reorganise and refine existing content types. It features a side-by-side live preview and code editing interface which lets you see changes as you type, and a Formtool Palette for quick drag and drop insertion of new formtool properties.

Is the code for this shared anywhere? I’d love to have a peek.

It used to be in the Atlassian SVN that was decommissioned, so for now about the best you can do it just hit “view source”… :slight_smile:

However I’m half way through a rewrite which basically means existing code has been binned; the plan is to make it flexible enough to add custom formtools or pre-defined formtool metadata libraries.
