=head1 NAME

Catalyst::Helper::HTML::FormFu - Helper to deploy HTML::FormFu template files.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    script/myapp_create.pl HTML::FormFu

=head1 DESCRIPTION

As of version 0.02000, L<HTML::FormFu> doesn't use the TT template files by 
default - it uses in internal rendering engine.

If you don't want to customise the generated markup, you don't need to use
L<Catalyst::Helper::HTML::FormFu> at all.

If you want to customise the generated markup, you'll need a 
local copy of the template files. To create the files in the default
C<root/formfu> directory, run:

    script/myapp_create.pl HTML::FormFu

To create the files in a different subdirectory of C<root>, pass the path
as an argument. The following example would create the template files into 
the directory C<root/forms>.

    script/myapp_create.pl HTML::FormFu forms

You'll  also need to tell HTML::FormFu to use the TT renderer, this can be
achieved with L<Catalyst::Controller::HTML::FormFu>, with the following
Catalyst application YAML config:

    ---
    'Controller::HTML::FormFu':
      constructor:
        render_method: tt
