Abstract
Electronic form systems are provided. In at least certain configurations, an electronic form system includes a form definition that is utilized to generate one or more user interfaces corresponding to a form. The form definition specifies a type for each of the fields within the form. The field types may include discrete and/or abstract fields, and data may be stored locally or synchronized with a remote device. Additionally, the form definition can include any other metadata such as, but not limited to location, rendering, and formatting information. These and various other features and advantages that characterize the claimed embodiments will become apparent upon reading the following detailed description and upon reviewing the associated drawings.
