Using the YAML encoder, Formidable is now capable of detecting et retagging ansible-vault [1] encrypted values. You can use the query parameter 'ansible_vault=no' to disable this behavior. [1] https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/vault.html
Formidable
Web-based - but terminal compatible ! - little form editor using JSONSchema models.
Terminal compatible ?
The generated web UI does not use Javascript and can be used with terminal browsers like w3m or lynx.

For example, to edit with Firefox a schema (in YAML) from an HTTPS server, while readig default values from stdin (in JSON) and using effective values from the local file system (in HCL), outputing updates to stdout:
echo '{}' | FORMIDABLE_BROWSER="firefox" frmd \
edit
--schema 'https://example.com/my-schema.yml' \
--defaults 'stdin://local?format=json' \
--values 'file:///my/file/absolute/path.hcl' \
--output 'stdout://local?format=json'
