Is this job application form generator free?

Yes. Generating and copying the code is completely free and needs no signup. You only create a free ShipMyForm account when you want the form to actually receive submissions.

Does the job application form need a backend?

No. The form posts to a hosted endpoint, so it works on any static site. Submissions are stored, spam-filtered, and emailed to you without a server.

Can I use it with React, Vue, Svelte or Astro?

Yes. Switch the output tab to your framework: the generator produces ready-to-paste code for HTML, React, Vue, Svelte, Astro, and a fetch() version, all pointing at the same endpoint.

How does spam protection work?

The generator adds an invisible honeypot field that bots fill but humans never see. Combined with server-side rate limiting it stops most spam without a CAPTCHA, and you can add a Cloudflare Turnstile key too.

How it works

Choose a template and fields. Pick a template, then add, remove, or reorder fields and mark the required ones.
Style it. Pick CSS, Tailwind, or unstyled output and tune the theme: accent color, light or dark, rounded corners.
Copy your framework's code. Switch to HTML, React, Vue, Svelte, Astro, or a fetch() version and copy, download, or open it in CodePen.
Connect an endpoint. Create a free ShipMyForm form to get a real endpoint, then drop your form ID in so submissions actually arrive.
