Form.io is a powerful form-building platform that allows you to create complex, dynamic forms quickly and easily. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Form.io on a Windows 10 machine.
Before we get started with the installation process, please ensure that your computer meets the following requirements:
First, open the command prompt (CMD) as an administrator. To do this, right-click on the Start menu button and select "Command Prompt (Admin)".
Install the Form.io CLI by running the following command in the command prompt:
npm install -g @formio/cli
Once the CLI has been installed, you can create a new Form.io project by running the following command:
formio create myproject
Replace "myproject" with a name of your choice for the project.
Next, change into the newly created project directory by running the following command:
cd myproject
Replace "myproject" with the name you chose in step 3.
Finally, you can start the development server by running the following command:
npm start
You can now access the Form.io project by opening a web browser and navigating to http://localhost:3001.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed Form.io on your Windows 10 machine! You can now start building complex and dynamic forms with ease.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
