Self-Hostable Form Back End – OSS Alternative to Formspree

In case others are looking for a cheaper alternative to Formspree, I&#x27;ve been using <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;formspark.io&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;formspark.io&#x2F;</a> for all my websites [1] [2] [3]<p>I paid $25 a few years ago (can&#x27;t even remember when) and I still have 47k out of the 50k submission credits I bought.<p>But I love to see a self-hostable alternative available, especially one that&#x27;s as easy to use as running a `docker-compose` command. Sometimes you just need that control.<p>For example in my case, I would get app support emails all day and night, and even if I had DND enabled, I would wake to 3-6 emails that accumulated over night and my mornings would get hectic instantly. I would forget to eat for a long time and my mood would be irritable all day.<p>I had to place my own small API in front of Formspark to delay the emails for specific times of the day to avoid this. Something like FormBee would allow me to alter this in the server code directly instead of building yet another API.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;lowtechguys.com&#x2F;contact" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;lowtechguys.com&#x2F;contact</a><p>[2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;lunar.fyi&#x2F;contact" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;lunar.fyi&#x2F;contact</a><p>[3] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;alinpanaitiu.com&#x2F;contact" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;alinpanaitiu.com&#x2F;contact</a>

We have really easily implemented this service with Nocodb. I think the only feature missing would be the pow catpcha.<p>I would like to have a moment in my life to write down how we have done it.

I signed up for the hosted version to try things out. Some quick feedback is that the dashboard copy (text) could be crystallized a bit more or provide a hint tooltip to help explain things a bit better.<p>Some examples:<p>* &quot;Set up return email to return an email to users who submit your forms.&quot; - this is pretty clear what it means, but the phrasing is a bit awkward. -&gt; &quot;Set up automated response email for form submissions&quot;<p>* &quot;Allowed Domains&quot;: allowed for what? Allowed to receive form submissions from?<p>* When giving numbers (e.g. under API Usage), suggest adding units (e.g. &quot;submissions&quot;) to the end.<p>* &quot;Recipient Email&quot; This seems a bit too ambiguous. suggest something more like -&gt;&quot;Address for receiving form submissions&quot;

@Oia20 One challenge with form -&gt; email solutions is staying ahead of spam. I&#x27;ve been deep in this space with Kwes Forms [1] and have seen some pretty insane rates of spam usage. If you ever want to chat about some of the techniques I&#x27;ve used for prevention (everything from intelligent rate limiting to now a user scoring service that updates based on data about the user and following actions they take which autobans if they hit a score threshold).<p>With the self-hosted service, I guess that&#x27;s up to the hoster but likely something you&#x27;ll run into on your hosted version.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;kwesforms.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;kwesforms.com</a>

This used to be what StaticKit did...until they were acquired by Formspree.

@Oia20 Great stuff! Very complete docs, and I dig the docker based self hosting with SMTP integration.

Thanks for sharing.<p>I am curious: how low maintenance is this?<p>Is this something that can be hosted for long periods of time without security interventions and updates?<p>Is it fire and forget?

This doesn’t take long to build with LLM but what I find challenging to make is a beautiful and intuitive form builder. Is there any such open source solution out there? I found this one but IMO it is not usable outside of the dev community without heavy customizing: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.npmjs.com&#x2F;package&#x2F;react-form-builder2?activeTab=readme" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.npmjs.com&#x2F;package&#x2F;react-form-builder2?activeTab=...</a>

I suppose the easiest way to use this or similar and be compliant with Hipaa would be to send the data vai webhook to a Hipaa compliant thing..<p>I&#x27;ve been looking for self hostable: encryption before emailing and encryption at rest for form submissions dat saved in a server DB eg sql with wordpress moved to something else,<p>anyone having suggestions (things free or under $29 &#x2F; mth) I&#x27;m all ears.

This is just one prompt away: write a lambda to forward emails to a configured email address
