Add a Form Backend to Svelte — Zero Boilerplate

Svelte's philosophy of less code pairs perfectly with FormsList. Where other frameworks need state management libraries and complex setup, Svelte's reactive declarations and bind:value make form handling elegantly simple. Add FormsList as your backend and you have a complete form solution in under 30 lines of code. FormsList handles everything that happens after the user clicks submit — storing the data, sending notifications, filtering spam, and forwarding submissions to your favorite tools. Your Svelte component stays focused on the user interface, with no server-side logic to maintain. Whether you're using Svelte with SvelteKit, Vite, or a standalone setup, FormsList integrates the same way: a simple fetch POST to your unique endpoint. It's the fastest way to add working forms to any Svelte project.

Setup Svelte with FormsList

1

Create your FormsList form

Sign up at FormsList and create a new form endpoint. You'll receive a unique URL for submissions.

const FORM_URL = "https://formslist.com/f/YOUR_FORM_ID";
2

Add the form to your Svelte component

Use Svelte's bind:value for reactive inputs and on:submit|preventDefault to handle form submission via fetch.

<script>
  let name = "";
  async function handleSubmit() {
    const formData = new FormData();
    formData.append("name", name);
    await fetch("https://formslist.com/f/YOUR_FORM_ID", { method: "POST", body: formData });
  }
</script>

<form on:submit|preventDefault={handleSubmit}>
  <input bind:value={name} required />
  <button type="submit">Send</button>
</form>
3

Configure email alerts or Slack notifications in the FormsList dashboard, then deploy your Svelte app to any static host.
