Introduction
Similar to tabs, you may want to use a multistep wizard to reduce the number of components that are visible at once. These are especially useful if your form has a definite chronological order, in which you want each step to be validated as the user progresses.Rendering a submit button on the last step
You may use thesubmitAction() method to render submit button HTML or a view at the end of the wizard, on the last step. This provides a clearer UX than displaying a submit button below the wizard at all times:
Setting a step icon
Steps may have an icon, which you can set using theicon() method:
As well as allowing a static value, the icon() method also accepts a function to dynamically calculate it. You can inject various utilities into the function as parameters.
