+summary: Redtape provides an alternative to [ActiveRecord::NestedAttributes#accepts\_nested\_attributes\_for](http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveRecord/NestedAttributes/ClassMethods.html#method-i-accepts_nested_attributes_for)
+  in the form of, well, a Form!  The initial implementation was heavily inspired by
+  ["7 Ways to Decompose Fat Activerecord Models"](http://blog.codeclimate.com/blog/2012/10/17/7-ways-to-decompose-fat-activerecord-models/)
+  by [Bryan Helmkamp](https://github.com/brynary).
