Forms Without a Backend

rendrd serves static pages and has no server to receive a form submission. To make a working form, post it to a form-to-email service. These accept a cross-origin POST and email you the result, with no backend of your own.

Accepted services: formsubmit.co, api.web3forms.com, formspree.io.

Example (FormSubmit)

html
<form action="https://formsubmit.co/you@example.com" method="POST">
  <input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Your name" required />
  <input type="email" name="email" placeholder="Your email" required />
  <textarea name="message" placeholder="Message"></textarea>
  <button type="submit">Send</button>
</form>

A form posting anywhere else is removed at publish.

Fields you cannot collect

To keep rendrd off the list of places that harvest sensitive data, publishing removes fields that collect payment cards, CVV, bank or IBAN details, national IDs (such as SSN, NINO, TFN), passwords or crypto keys. If you need to take payments or credentials, host that form on your own backend and link to it.
