I often use the Twitter bootstrap form template helper in my web application as this is very easy.

Yesterday I want to create a form with horizontal fields and found on GitHub a Pull-Request with a comment (one year old) from guillaumebort that the helper will be deprecated in the next version.But I found nothing about it in the Play Template helper Documentation.

  • Is the helper already deprecated or will it get updated?
  • Is there already any more sophisticated Bootstrap Template helper as plugin? (I think, lot people are using Play+Bootstrap.)
  • ...or should I write my own helper with support for horizontal fields?

AFAIK the Twitter Bootstrap helper is not maintained anymore. By looking at the history, the latest update on this comes from a year ago. And it is based on an old Twitter Bootstrap version.

I think you should write your own helper.

  • Ok, thank you, I have written my own Template helper which is based on the [helper from James Faeldon](http://www.jamesfaeldon.com/2012/05/01/using-twitter-bootstrap-horizontal-forms-in-play-framework-2-0/) and created a new Play2-documentation issue in the bugtracker. – Sonson123 Mar 06 '13 at 07:13
