Building a website is easy. Handling form submissions without setting up a backend can be a different story.
Whether you're building a portfolio, landing page, business website, or static website, you probably need a contact form, feedback form, application form, or file upload form.
I've created an open-source GitHub repository with working HTML form examples that developers can copy, customize, and use in their projects.
GitHub Repository:
https://github.com/formclick/html-form-examples
What's included?
The repository currently includes four practical examples:
- Contact Form: Name, email, subject, and message with inline success feedback.
- File Upload Form: Job application form with resume and work sample uploads.
- Plain HTML Form: Submit forms without requiring JavaScript.
- Fetch & JSON: Submit form data using JavaScript Fetch API and handle responses yourself.
Each example includes an HTML file and a README explaining how it works.
How does it work?
With Formclick, you can connect an HTML form to a submission endpoint without building your own backend.
Here's a simple example:
<form
action="https://api.formclick.io/submit"
method="POST"
>
<input
type="hidden"
name="access_key"
value="YOUR_ACCESS_KEY"
/>
<input
type="email"
name="email"
placeholder="Your email"
required
/>
<textarea
name="message"
placeholder="Your message"
required
></textarea>
<button type="submit">
Send Message
</button>
</form>
Replace the access key with your own Formclick key, and your form is ready to receive submissions.
No custom backend endpoint or database setup is required.
Why did I create this repository?
I wanted to make it easier for developers to add working forms to websites without spending time building and maintaining form-processing infrastructure.
The examples are open source under the MIT License, so you can copy, modify, and use them in personal or commercial projects.
