  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • ajv

    The fastest JSON schema Validator. Supports JSON Schema draft-04/06/07/2019-09/2020-12 and JSON Type Definition (RFC8927)

  • Input validation looks very similar on the back-end except instead of validating individual fields, you're usually validating the entire form in the body of an HTTP request. If you want to syntactically and semantically validate the whole form in one fell swoop, you can use schema validation. Like making a type in a statically-typed language, you can create a file with a schema, the format you expect, and check against it with a package like ajv.

  • 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.
