AutoForms is a custom form engine for Django that allows users to declare forms at runtime, serialize form data, and dynamically generate forms. It can be used for polling, information collecting, custom forms in workflows, and dynamic forms in Django apps. Key features include declaring forms programmatically, previewing forms, setting advanced field options, customizing error messages, collecting and accessing submitted form data, and displaying stored data.
