Much simpler solutions exist like https://formsubmit.co/ https://formsubmit.co/
And for others who use the static hosts' free tiers for hobby projects, Cloudflare provides form submissions to your static pages, netliffy forms is quite generous too https://www.netlify.com/platform/core/forms/ https://www.netlify.com/platform/core/forms/
- cchance 2y agoExcept.. as the first half of the page says he’s trying to avoid relying on third party services and to self host it
- vidyesh 2y agoYes, they too mention that service but for work purposes. I just find it odd that this is now considered a sane way for hobby projects. I would rather have something like this for a client who wants complete control of their data.
- irq-1 2y agoNetlify forms looks like it could be great, but the pricing is awful: 100 per site /month ($19+ when exceeded) Cloudflare form plugin sets up a worker/handler, which is cheap and easy. It does require coding though, unlike the formsubmit.co link. https://developers.cloudflare.com/pages/functions/plugins/static-forms/ https://developers.cloudflare.com/pages/functions/plugins/st...
- vidyesh 2y agoThat static form plugin sends submissions to Cloudflare KV Storage, I only recently started experimenting with Cloudflare offerings so haven't tried KV yet but does it get populated in the Cloudflare dashboard? If not, then that would be another thing to build. And about Netlify. If you are getting more than 100 submissions/month on your hobby project, I think it might be time to consider some better serious solutions ;)
