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.
I feel the exact same way. I have some plugin ideas to smooth over the process as well. The built in publishing feature is a little rough and not optimized at all. I get the impression that logseq is investing a lot more energy on their own hosted solution than the self hosted publishing right now.
Despite the downsides, as someone who spent way too much time tweaking their own static site, it's really nice to be able to do just write and organize everything inside logseq and push my thoughts up at the end of the day. I was spending way to much time configuring and polishing the static site instead of just getting the notes out there.
Logseq had a tool to publish your notes as a static site, but it's out of date now unfortunately. https://github.com/logseq/publish
Since Logseq handles everything with plain text, some people are just generating a static site from those files directly, but you lose some of the advanced logseq features. I'm looking into doing this to make a "light" version of the notes as a static html site.
