Scope Variables available

You have the following variables on your scope:

• optionsData - The data provided to configure the field
• formId - The ID of the form the field is on
• index - The index of the field the form is on (in ng-repeat)
• value - The value of the form

Useful options

useNgIfToHide

If you've got performance issues with angular-formly give this option a try. Setting it to true will change fields with a hide=true to be hidden with ng-if instead of ng-hide meaning their watchers will be removed from the digest cycle (which is the leading cause of death for performance on angular pages).
