# MAUI PDF form library

Form fields in your MAUI app can be manually filled with the user interface (UI). To do this, focus or press on a form field to type on it or modify its value. We also offers developers access to web APIs for programmatically creating and filling form fields.

These APIs will be further enhanced and translated into native APIs in future updates.![Filling form fields](@/assets/guides/maui/forms/filling-forms.png)

If the Form Creator component is present in your license, it’s possible to set `ViewState#formDesignMode` by accessing JavaScript APIs. When `true`, pressing a form field will select it and enable moving and resizing it, but it won’t be possible to change its value until `ViewState#formDesignMode` is set to `false`.![Creating form fields](@/assets/guides/maui/forms/creating-forms.png)
