- **Name:** `boolean`
- **UI:** toggle switch
- **Data type:** boolean
- **Options:**
- `default`: accepts `true` or `false`; defaults to `false`
- **Example:**

- **Data type:** Moment.js-formatted date string
- **Options:**
- `default`: accepts a date string, or an empty string to accept blank input; otherwise defaults to current date
- `format`: accepts Moment.js [tokens](https://momentjs.com/docs/#/parsing/string-format/); defaults to ISO8601 format `YYYY-MM-DD`

```yaml
- label: "Birthdate"
name: "birthdate"
widget: "date"
default: ""
format: "MMM Do YY"
```

- **Data type:** file path string, based on `media_folder`/`public_folder` configuration
- **Options:**
- `default`: accepts a file path string; defaults to null
- **Example:**

```yaml
- label: "Featured Image"
name: "thumbnail"
widget: "image"
default: "/uploads/chocolate-dogecoin.jpg"
```


## List

The list widget allows you to create a repeatable item in the UI which saves as a list of widget values. map a user-provided string with a comma delimiter into a list. You can choose any widget as a child of a list widget—even other lists.

- **Name:** `list`
- **UI:** if `fields` is specified, field containing a repeatable child widget, with controls for adding, deleting, and re-ordering the repeated widgets; if unspecified, a text input for entering comma-separated values
- **Data type:** list of widget values
- **Options:**
- `default`: if `fields` is specified, declare defaults on the child widgets; if not, you may specify a list of strings to populate the text field
- `field`: a single widget field to be repeated
- `fields`: a nested list of multiple widget fields to be included in each repeatable iteration
- **Example** (`field`/`fields` not specified):

```yaml
- label: "Tags"
name: "tags"
widget: "list"
default: ["news"]
```

- **Example** (with `field`):

```yaml
- label: "Gallery"
name: "galleryImages"
widget: "list"
field:
- {label: Image, name: image, widget: image}
```

- **Example** (with `fields`):

```yaml
- label: "Testimonials"
name: "testimonials"
widget: "list"
fields:
- {label: Quote, name: quote, widget: string, default: "Everything is awesome!"}
- label: Author
name: author
widget: object
fields:
- {label: Name, name: name, widget: string, default: "Emmet"}
- {label: Avatar, name: avatar, widget: image, default: "/img/emmet.jpg"}
```


## Number

The number widget uses an HTML number input, saving the value as a string, integer, or floating point number.

- **Name:** `number`

- **Data type:** string by default; configured by `valueType` option
- **Options:**
- `default`: accepts string or number value; defaults to empty string
- `valueType`: accepts `int` or `float`; any other value results in saving as a string
- `min`: accepts a number for minimum value accepted; unset by default
- `max`: accepts a number for maximum value accepted; unset by default
- **Example:**

```yaml
- label: "Puppy Count"
name: "puppies"
widget: "number"
default: 2
valueType: "int"
min: 1
max: 101
```

The object widget allows you to group multiple widgets together, nested under a single field. You can choose any widget as a child of an object widget—even other objects.

- **Name:** `object`
- **UI:** a field containing one or more child widgets
- **Data type:** list of child widget values
- **Options:**
- `default`: you can set defaults within each sub-field's configuration
- `fields`: (**required**) a nested list of widget fields to include in your widget

```yaml
- label: "Profile"
name: "profile"
widget: "object"
fields:
- {label: "Public", name: "public", widget: "boolean", default: true}
- {label: "Name", name: "name", widget: "string"}
- label: "Birthdate"
name: "birthdate"
widget: "date"
default: ""
format: "MM/DD/YYYY"
- label: "Address"
name: "address"
widget: "object"
fields:
- {label: "Street Address", name: "street", widget: "string"}
- {label: "City", name: "city", widget: "string"}
- {label: "Postal Code", name: "post-code", widget: "string"}
```


## Relation

The relation widget allows you to reference items from another collection. It provides a search input with a list of entries from the collection you're referencing, and the list automatically updates with matched entries based on what you've typed.

- **Name:** `realtion`
- **UI:** text input with search result dropdown
- **Data type:** data type of the value pulled from the related collection item
- **Options:**
- `default`: accepts any widget data type; defaults to an empty string
- `collection`: (**required**) name of the collection being referenced (string)
- `searchFields`: (**required**) list of one or more names of fields in the referenced collection to search for the typed value
- `valueField`: (**required**) name of the field from the referenced collection whose value will be stored for the relation
- **Example** (assuming a separate "authors" collection with "name" and "twitterHandle" fields):

```yaml
- label: Post Author
name: author
widget: relation
collection: authors
searchFields: [name, twitterHandle]
valueField: name
```
The generated UI input will search the authors collection by name and twitterHandle as the user types. On selection, the author name will be saved for the field.

The select widget allows you to pick a single string value from a dropdown menu.

- **Name:** `select`
- **UI:** HTML select input
- **Data type:** string
- **Options:**
- `default`: accepts a string; defaults to an empty string
- `options`: (**required**) a list of options for the dropdown menu; can be listed in two ways:
- string values: the label displayed in the dropdown is the value saved in the file
- object with `label` and `value` fields: the label displays in the dropdown; the value is saved in the file
- **Example** (options as strings):

```yaml
- label: "Align Content"
name: "align"
widget: "select"
options: ["left", "center", "right"]
```
- **Example** (options as objects):

```yaml
- label: "City"
name: "airport-code"

- { label: "Paris", value: "CDG" }

I think it reads a little more clearly if Example is bold as well. It's bold in some widgets, but not in others.
