OpnForm - Build beautiful forms in seconds

Looks interesting, but if you haven't seen it, NocoDB has a view that lets you build custom forms https://nocodb.commonscomputer.com/dashboard/#/nc/form/f22133cb-7261-48b1-a803-0d9073bf26ef
There's a "survey" mode that gives you Typeform-style one question at a time, too.
This is very similar to how I've used Airtable in the past, so was impressed that NocoDB supports this.

@bmann Oh that's great! Didn't know it did that.
Seems we have a few tools on Cloudron that are underutilized because it's not obvious or discussed.
It would be neat to have a series of posts with problem/category such as "How to do forms with.." and then show all the clever ways with LAMP, N8N, EspoCRM, WP+plugins, NocoDB, ChatWoot, FreeScout, TypeBot, LimeSurvey, DocuSeal, Grav, Directus, Ghost, etc.
-
@robi @girish We should start a thread type "What can you do with apps on your Cloudron" or something in the like, inviting people to share things like that, or problem-solution they're solving with a stack of apps on Cloudron etc. As mentioned by @robi all could be found in a single place and constitute a series vault etc.
That could be interesting.

Thanks for mentioning this!

That is super mega cool!
Thanks for sharing man. -
That said, I believe the proposed OpnForm from the OP sounds amazing and would be a great addition to Cloudron. Indeed, yes we can use other apps as alternative as taught by @bmann, but still an easy to access strait away standalone app, especially as this one, is always a welcomed time saver.

I took a deeper look at OpnForm from the user perspective.

Presumably the responses the get stored into a spreadsheet-like table that could e.g. be exported as a CSV file?
I need something like that at present and don't want to have to use Google Forms to do it...

Yes, you can!

NocoDB is the perfect tool for such things!
After manually setting up a form I realised I could've just import the template CSV I already had and it automatically creats the necessary form to collect the data! Awesome!
Thanks so much for bringing this to our attention @bmann!

Although... https://forum.cloudron.io/post/83883 - help!

BTW, NocoDB (already on Cloudron) does great forms, and Nextcloud Forms can also (finally!) be linked to a spreadsheet to store responses like Google Forms too (and it works great).
-
NoCoDB indeed has a form view, but it is no nearly as featured as Opnform!
+1 for having this on Cloudron
