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.
Ultimately though, this is just the way Flathub works. Anyone can submit a flatpak manifest to package an application. To be clear, I think this is a good thing - I would not want Flathub to become a curated wall garden; this is one of the points against Canonical and their control over the Snap Store, imo. As it stands now, you have the ability to see every flatpak manifest to see if there is any potential foul play (In Bitwarden's case, the flatpak is created directly from the .deb package straight from Bitwarden's git repo).
