"""This module provide highlevel helpers to avoid uicfg boilerplate
for most common tasks such as fields ordering, widget customization, etc.
Here are a few helpers to customize *action box* rendering:
.. autofunction:: cubicweb.web.uihelper.append_to_addmenu
.. autofunction:: cubicweb.web.uihelper.remove_from_addmenu
and a few other ones for *form configuration*:
.. autofunction:: cubicweb.web.uihelper.set_fields_order
.. autofunction:: cubicweb.web.uihelper.hide_field
.. autofunction:: cubicweb.web.uihelper.hide_fields
.. autofunction:: cubicweb.web.uihelper.set_field_kwargs
.. autofunction:: cubicweb.web.uihelper.set_field
.. autofunction:: cubicweb.web.uihelper.edit_inline
.. autofunction:: cubicweb.web.uihelper.edit_as_attr
.. autofunction:: cubicweb.web.uihelper.set_muledit_editable
The module also provides a :class:`FormConfig` base class that lets you gather
uicfg declaration in the scope of a single class, which can sometimes
be clearer to read than a bunch of sequential function calls.
.. autoclass:: cubicweb.web.uihelper.FormConfig
