When should I use synchronous forms in my application?

Synchronous forms are best used when you need to ensure that the user completes a task in a specific order, like a multi-step process.

Can you give me an example of a situation where synchronous forms are beneficial?

Sure! A good example is a checkout process where users must fill out their shipping information before proceeding to payment.

What are the downsides of using synchronous forms?

The main downside is that they can create a less flexible user experience, as users can't skip steps or navigate freely.

Are there alternatives to synchronous forms?

Yes, asynchronous forms allow users to fill out information at their own pace, which can enhance user experience in many scenarios.
