Formberry currently offers two form views:

1. Multi-step View (like Typeform)
2. Linear View (like Google Forms)

## How Views Work

<details>

<summary><strong>Linear View (Like Google Forms)</strong></summary>

Our Linear View provides a straightforward and familiar format, similar to Google Forms. It's great for creating simple forms or surveys. Here's how it works:

* Start by adding questions one after the other, creating a linear flow.
* Users progress through the form, answering questions sequentially.
* Ideal for straightforward data collection with minimal branching or complexity.

<summary><strong>Multi-step View (Like Typeform)</strong></summary>

The Multi-step View, inspired by Typeform, is perfect for more complex forms that require a user-friendly, step-by-step approach. Here's how it works:

* Break your form into multiple sections or steps, making it less overwhelming for users.
* Each step reveals a portion of the form, keeping users engaged and focused.
* Ideal for longer forms, surveys, or when you need to create a conversational user experience.

## Selecting a View

Here are some considerations to help you select the right view for you:

{% hint style="info" %}
**Form Complexity:** For simple forms, the Linear view is quick and efficient. For complex forms with branching logic, consider the Multi-step view.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
**User Experience:** Think about the experience you want to provide. Multi-step view can make longer forms feel more manageable, while Linear view is straightforward and a scroll-down experience.
{% endhint %}

Stay tuned for new form views! ✨
