                  formData.copyWith(firstName: value),
                ),
              ),

                onChanged: (value) => controller.setForm(
                  formData.copyWith(lastName: value),
                },
              ),
            ),
            ElevatedButton(
              child: Text('Submit'),
              onPress: () {
                if (controller.validate()) {
                  // Submit form
                }
              }
            )
          ],
        );
