How do you guys work with forms on backend? Do you have framework in your language or do you work with raw body, parsing and validating everything with your own tools?

I use Gump.

We use framework. Raw parsing and validation is maintenance hell.

@guru what framework?

There is forms framework that comes with django.

@anup-dhabarde one of the best, I must say.

@idchlife Yes, it is. Makes life much easier. But recently haven't been using templating part of django forms as I've moved to angularjs.

@idchlife I have used custom framework and Spring MVC. Also if you use Java, spring MVC has auto form binding which gives most of validation things and parameter extraction using simple beans, etc out of the box. There is some learning curve though.
