Forms are an essential component of a web page as they allow users to input data and interact with a website.

What can we do with help of forms?

Collecting user information

Forms can be used to collect various types of user information, such as contact information, feedback, survey responses, and more. Then, this information can be used to provide a more personalized user experience, improve website functionality, or inform business decisions.

User engagement

Forms provide a way for users to interact with a website and can help to keep users engaged. For example, forms can be used to create quizzes, polls, and other interactive content that encourages user participation.

E-commerce transactions

Forms play a crucial role in e-commerce transactions, allowing users to enter payment and shipping information. With forms, e-commerce websites could process orders and complete transactions.

Search functionality

Forms can be used to create search functionality on a website, allowing users to search for specific content. This can help improve user experience by making it easier for users to find the information they seek.

Note

In this course, we consider the interface, how to create a markup, and format the form elements. We do not work with data processing because, for this task, we need knowledge of server-side programming languages (JavaScript, Node.js, Python, PHP, etc.)
