We handle form submissions so you can focus on design
When we went to launch our new Jekyll Site for Literate Computing we didn't like any of the form processing sites we found, so we decided to make our own, just to get the job done. Then we decided that the system was too good not to share.
Built on top of Discourse
Literate Computing provides installation, management, and support services for Discourse, the best forum software on the planet. When we needed a form processing platform, we created a Discourse plugin. https://hub.formhoster.com/ is where you can go to discuss forms as well as have them processed. If you have recommendations about how to make things better, we have a public place where you can let us know.Add a form to your static web side
