Luck on creating an custom asset

Just wondering how many here have had luck on creating their own custom assets using the steps on the developer pages.


We are interested in creating our own Multi-Page Custom Form asset. The task seems a little overwhelming, so I was just wondering if anyone has had experience creating an asset. Just wanting to get people feedback on this…

I will admit that your first choice for a custom asset is a particularly challenging one. :slight_smile: Have you started by looking at the code for the current custom form asset itself?

Yes, I have been going through the code for the past few hours. Our developers here have created a custom multi-page form in php in the past, but just for a normal php website. So, we are just wondering how much added work and technical difficulty does this add when wanting to create this in Matrix? I have a feeling it is considerable.

Well, that depends on how Matrix-esque you want to make it. Creating a custom asset that just does want you want it to do in a very specific way is fairly easy. Making an asset that uses Matrix attributes and Matrix interfaces and such is probably more time-consuming, but far more generic and easier to reuse and extend in future.
