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.
Many developers know just how powerful Node.js can be for building applications. And, many developers are keen on using open-source APIs for their applications. So, what if a lightweight, open-source option to find the latitude and longitude of an address in just a few lines of code using Node.js exists? Well, it does! In fact, both ways are possible (coordinates to address/location and address/location to coordinates). Let’s dive into it!
This article is inspired by the Search for an Address tutorial on the ArcGIS REST JS documentation page along with the video below. You can also find the complete code solution in this repo.
