Liform is meant to be used with Symfony.
Seperating the code necessary to install this software as a Symfony bundle just produces overhead maintenance.

If someone wants to use Symfony/Form and Liform outside of a Symfony application he can just use the Liform classes right out of the bundle.

DateTimeTransformer translates the Symfony date fields to a regexp pattern to be compatible with JSON schema.
The resulting patterns represent the syntactical expectation but can lack meaning for consuming libraries.

Including the PHP date format as additional information might be the best solution as there are differences in the expected formats across JavaScript date managing libraries (date-fns vs moment)

Liform used to transform instances of Symfony\Component\Form\FormInterface.

As Liform is aiming to provide data to be sent to the client or used by server-side rendering, it should work with Symfony\Component\Form\FormView instead.

FormTypes can implement Symfony\Component\Form\FormTypeInterface::buildView() and ::finishView() manipulating which data is expected to be the base for rendering.
Liform's output should be content equivalent to e.g. the views rendered per Twig templates.
