What is it?

Nextcloud Forms lets you build simple surveys and questionnaires inside a Nextcloud instance. The interface keeps to essential options and works on mobile devices. You can share a form with respondents, then view the results as visualizations or export them as CSV in the same format Google Forms uses.

Survey data and responses are stored on your own Nextcloud server rather than a third-party service. The app also supports webhooks for Forms events, which the Nextcloud server administration guide documents.

The project is written in JavaScript with a Vue frontend and PHP backend. It is developed inside the Nextcloud app ecosystem, so it is installed through a Nextcloud instance rather than run standalone.
