Show HN: Formie – an open source (WIP) form website made with pure HTML/JS/CSS

17 pointsby div72almost 3 years ago
Hey HN,<p>First time submitter here.<p>After a FOSS related interaction required me to use Google Forms 9 months, I wondered on why no such FOSS tool existed and decided to build it myself. I aimed the site to be for people like me, so no telemetry and minimal JS was the goal. I know this is rather small and incomplete compared to other projects but I&#x27;ve thought you folk might be interested.<p>Not sure if it breaks the pure part, but the site also uses Flask.<p>If you&#x27;re lucky, you might find the app alive at: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;formie.div72.xyz" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;formie.div72.xyz</a>.

Will CSV be implemented? (e.g. you can import the CSV into SQLite in order to make your own queries on the data) Making the results as CSV should be better than making the results as HTML, in my opinion.<p>(I had also made up my own format for making forms of a similar purpose, which is purely plain text and no HTML or anything else like that is needed (although it could be converted to HTML, or print out, or whatever other format you might want to use, but the basic format is plain text and can be distributed as it is). I made the specification although the implementation is not yet complete at this time.)

&quot;pure HTML&#x2F;CSS&#x2F;JS&quot; sounds great, but then there is no demo hosted directly on GitHub pages? Form submission could just go nowhere.<p>I would love to get a quick taste of what you think makes this special.

I really wish GitHub&#x2F;GitLab&#x2F;CloudFlare would have added some sort of form functionality to their Pages feature.

ahhhh... no, it&#x27;s made with python so it&#x27;s not pure.<p>nice try dude but you couldn&#x27;t host this on a static server. you edit your title as it is a bit deceitful.
