Thanks Roberto. Unfortunately itā€™s not self-hosted and not Open Source.

Sorry I will delete it. I was so enthusiast that I forget self hosted and openā€¦ :frowning:

No problems. It happens :slight_smile:

I just post OS and self-hosted tools because I think pushing commercial software can lead to an ugly place here in the forum.

Hi Jon,

Did you ever try the OhMyForm package? What is it like? It looks like a super interesting alternative to Typeform!

I am afraid I havenā€™t had the chance to test it.

Iā€™ll try it out and report back :sunglasses:

So I did try it outā€¦ It is still pretty alpha.

Itā€™s fairly easy to setup locally. I had to downgrade node to v14 in order for it to work. The form editor right now seems very very basic. No conditional logic, as far as I can tell. Also no options to easily insert images in the questions or change the way to form is presented through the interface (other than some color and font changes).

So as it is right now, I wouldnā€™t say it is worth running this instead of making your survey in Wappler or Google Forms or whatever.

Another thing Iā€™m going to try out is this repo here that makes a Typeform style form with some JQuery:
Link to codepen repo

Iā€™ll share here if that works nicely with Wappler.

Wow, the little snippet is pretty awesome! (proper front-end developers might not be very impressed, but I am :joy:)

So you have to make sure to run Jquery 3.2.1 and include scrollto. After that, it works and you have a typeform clone!

It looks sleek.

Just found another interesting tool for managing logins and authorizations, directly in your reverse proxy as service:

It is great that it also integrates with Traefik, so you can manage all authorizations to all your servers.

So try it out @JonL, might be very useful as Wappler integration.

I actually use it for my homelab :slight_smile:
All the different self-hosted services are accessed via SSO with authelia.

I didnā€™t post it here as I donā€™t know if Wapplers are used to setups with multiple wappler apps that could take advantage of SSO.

Well seems Authelia is still growing, when they also add OAuth and OpenID support for more services, it might become really interesting.

Postman alternative as a Visual Studio Code extension:

Great if you already use VSC.

Headless CMS + Internal Tools

Whenever Strapi was mentioned in the forum, Directus came after. I always promoted Strapi over Directus but I think with the latest release(v9) just launched recently Directus now comes ahead.

Why? Because they ditched PHP in favor of Nodejs and they are using Knex under the hood so this fits Wappler perfectly. I still need to do some figuring out but Iā€™m confident I will be able to manage all the migrations and seeds from Wappler interface to keep all the project(including directus) in sync.

Actually we work very closely together with the Directus maker on the Database schema introspection that we also use in Wappler :slight_smile:

They are doing indeed great job with Directus in NodeJS

Isnā€™t it a cloud based SaaS? How does it compare with keystonejs for example?
