Prop Drilling Necessary?

Hi folks. I'm looking into taking on a pretty large migration Tanstack Form from

react-hook-form

react-hook-form

because we've realized how horrible of a library it is. Many footguns, implementation traps, etc, etc.

react-hook-form

react-hook-form

embraces global hooks quite a bit, and to make the migration a bit simpler I was hoping to emulate that a bit in Tanstack form, but I've noticed the types are basically impossible to work with.

It seems like this is by design, and the API forces you to prop drill the

form

form

prop anywhere you need it via the

withForm

withForm

helper.

Basically, I'd like to confirm this suspision? Is it unreasonable to use this library if I'm planning on storing the form in context?
