Who built Forms.md?

This project is built and maintained by Tahmid Khan Nafee (that's me). I'm a full stack web developer in my late-20's. I first started programming in 2014, and went head-first into a startup as a technical co-founder in 2016, so I've been doing this for quite some time.

When it comes to my tech stack of choice, I'm proficient in Python (Django), JavaScript, TypeScript, SQL, and CSS. I'm also unusually design-oriented as a developer, so I have a lot of confidence in my product design skills.

Previously, I've built and maintained Halfmoon, which is an open source CSS framework that can be used as a drop-in replacement for Bootstrap.

I'm generally quite low-key about putting up pictures and personal information on the web, but if you send me an email or book a call, I'll be glad to answer any questions you may have for me.

Why did you build this?

I love software such as Typeform, Notion, Airtable, Google Sheets, etc. Basically anything that lets users do something useful without having to do a lot of work is a good idea to me. I also love Markdown, which is possibly the best way to author content on the web.

I strongly feel that there's a market for a reasonably priced, open source Typeform alternative—something that lets you build those great forms and surveys directly in your product, without having to wrangle with iframes.
