        return $form
            ->schema([
                static::myRepeaterThatDoesA(),
                static::myRepeaterThatDoesB(),
                // whatever
            ]);
    }

// in the same resource
public static function myRepeaterThatDoesA()
    {
        return
            Forms\Components\Repeater::make('xxx');
    }

    public static function myRepeaterThatDoesB()
    {
        return
            Forms\Components\Repeater::make('yyy');
    }

    public static function form(Form $form): Form
    {
        return $form
            ->schema([
                static::myRepeaterThatDoesA(),
