Static Forms
Static Forms is a service that enables form handling for static websites by providing a backend to process form submissions without requiring server-side code. It works by embedding a simple HTML form that sends data to Static Forms' servers, which then forwards it to a specified email address or integrates with other services. This allows developers to add contact forms, surveys, or other interactive elements to static sites like those built with Jekyll, Hugo, or Gatsby.
Developers should use Static Forms when building static websites that need form functionality but want to avoid managing a server or backend infrastructure. It's ideal for simple use cases such as contact forms, newsletter sign-ups, or feedback collection on sites hosted on platforms like GitHub Pages or Netlify. By offloading form processing, it reduces complexity and maintenance while keeping sites fast and secure.
