Introduction

What is DynamicFormBuilder?

DynamicFormBuilder is a visual, no-code platform for creating, publishing, and managing online forms. Whether you need a simple contact form or a complex multi-step survey with conditional logic, calculated fields, and geolocation capture, DynamicFormBuilder gives you the tools to build it — all through a drag-and-drop interface.

Forms are defined as JSON schemas under the hood, which means advanced users can fine-tune every aspect of a form programmatically while non-technical users can work entirely through the visual builder. Both perspectives are fully supported and can be used interchangeably on the same form.

Key Features

• 20+ field types — from basic text inputs to maps, matrices, and repeating arrays
• Drag-and-drop builder — reorder fields visually with instant preview
• Conditional logic — show or hide fields based on user responses
• Multi-step forms — break long forms into guided steps with progress indicators
• Field validation — built-in rules plus custom regex patterns
• Calculated fields — derive values from formulas using other field values
• Translations — full i18n support for multi-language deployments
• Submission management — view, filter, search, and export responses
• Organizations — team workspaces with role-based access control
• Developer JSON mode — edit the raw form schema directly

How It Works

Every form in DynamicFormBuilder is represented as a JSON schema — an array of field objects. The visual builder is a graphical editor for this schema. When you drag a field from the palette and configure its properties, you are editing that JSON. When you switch to Developer JSON mode you see the raw schema and can edit it directly.

When a user fills out a published form, their responses are stored as a submission object that mirrors the form schema. Each field's name property becomes the key in the submission, and the user's input becomes the value. This makes it trivial to export to CSV or integrate with downstream systems.

Use Cases

• Registration and enrollment forms for events or courses
• Customer feedback and satisfaction surveys
• Field data collection with GPS location capture
• Internal HR processes such as leave requests and expense reports
• Multi-step onboarding wizards with conditional branching
• Medical intake forms with complex validation rules
• Inspection checklists with photo upload and rating fields
