Nice to see this. I’ve been looking for a wysiwyg form builder at work, but not seeing many options. One of the use cases that’s been hard to fill is dynamic content, using the block builder more as “template builder” for a canned set of data field, potentially with some simple conditional logic. Has anyone solved similar problems or know of any interesting resources?

Beaver Builder, but you gotta use WordPress for the backend tho. Also it's not free, but SO worth the money if you do this all day.

Thanks! That’s the aim for this block builder. See the Community block, if it’s type = "github” it loads my GitHub repo collaborators in the backend, and since Remix is SSR-first, I use that dataset to display them as members on the UI. In other words, you could use this to start creating advanced Form/List (CRUD) builders.

It's great you share this, I've been searching for something like this for a while. I've also struggling finding 'basic' wysiwgy builders, a lot of the existing solutions have trended towards adding as many features as possible.

If you're looking for something no-code but more powerful that traditional form builders, check out https://fillout.com/

RemixBlocks looks cool, excited to see how it evolves. Our landing page is built with Tailwind and TailwindUI - would be interesting if you could import in an existing project

Thanks Dominic, your website is gorgeous and looks like a powerful tool! Are your direct competitors Typeform and Tally?

https://github.com/react-page/react-page is fully open source with a simple JSON data model and multi-language support; we’ve built various utilities for auto-generating content. Invest a few days in customizing CSS and you have a world-class WYSIWYG for your own design language. Highly recommend.
