SurveyJS
Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
So, I've decided to release my source code on github for my Fireblog.io fully functional blog written in Angular, using Firestore as the database, and hosted on Cloud Run.
The number one problem with Firestore is hands down the lack of counters. I literally wrote a package to do everything in Firebase Functions, and I learned after 6 months, I hate Firebase Functions. All the code missing from Firestore that takes up your time is relational and counter related. Now I know on the Frontend it is just as bad. However, I wrote some reusable Functions which I have talked about in other posts to make your life a little easier. However, some things are just impossible in Firestore. I seriously hate noSQL in general, but not having counters is terrible. I also wrote some reusable Firestore Rules for counters. Everything is usually dealing with counters.
