 ### First form
 
+Now that we've done our object model, time to build the form that goes with it. We'll start with a registration form. The form will request the user's name, email and password. We'll use validators to ensure the user submitted correct values. Finally, a Repcaptcha field (provided by flask) will avoid machine registration. Just in case you plan on having Term of Service, I added a BooleanField called accept_tos. Since this field is required, the user will have to check the checkbox generated by this field on the box.
