We created an html contact form generator with Node.js and Lambda

We where not happy with current available tools for creating online contact forms so we decided to build our own - Super Easy Forms With this tool you can generate responsive and 100% customizable html forms (No iframes) with a backend deployed in an instant for free.By leveraging new technologies such as serverless, the tool allows you to create an unlimited amount of forms, store unlimited form submission, register an unlimited amount of emails, easily export submissions from the database and ,best of all, you have full control of your data. All of this for free!How it WorksSuper Easy Forms is a simple CLI built with node js. It helps you register your email with AWS SES, it automatically creates the necessary resources for you in AWS, and it outputs a Bootstrap HTML form that's already connected to your API, ready to copy paste into your website.​https://i.redd.it/a1n8xett97131.pngResources CreatedA Dynamodb table with your desired fields.A lambda function that will send an email to your registered address and add the entry to the database.A REST API endpoint for the lambda function with a POST method.The FormResponsive bootsrap 4 layoutAutomatic form fields with labelsJQuery CDNJQuery handler connected to your API endpointCustomize your FormThe CLI outputs an html file with your ready-to-use form preset with default bootstrap classes and an inline JQuery handler.You can add custom CSS, modify the HTML layout of the form and adapt it to your project however you like.If you need inspiration you can check out this collection of bootstrap html contact forms in codepen.Whats Included with AWS in Super Easy Forms?You need to have an AWS account to be able to use Super Easy Forms.
