In warp-framework there is much shorter form, translated into your=20
shema-style it should be:

           StringField(self, "initials")

Which would be equal to the call above. Everything else could be=20
calulated (automagically guessed)

          StringField(self, "first_name")

Would be equal to:

          first_name =3D StringField(
             title=3D"First Name",
             description=3D"First Name.",
             )
