The code

Define an inline `"use server"` action that forwards the FormData to your FormLoom endpoint. No client JS required — it works with JavaScript disabled and progressively enhances. For richer UIs, pair it with `useActionState` for pending/error states.

Server Action (recommended)
app/contact/page.tsx
// app/contact/page.tsx — Next.js 15 App Router, Server Action
export default function ContactPage() {
  async function submit(formData: FormData) {
    "use server";
    const res = await fetch("https://formloom.vercel.app/api/submit/YOUR_ACCESS_KEY", {
      method: "POST",
      headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json", Accept: "application/json" },
      body: JSON.stringify(Object.fromEntries(formData)),
    });
    // FormLoom scores spam, stores the row, and emails you — no backend to wire.
    return res.json();
  }

  return (
    <form action={submit}>
      <label>
        Name
        <input type="text" name="name" required />
      </label>
      <label>
        Email
        <input type="email" name="email" required />
      </label>
      <label>
        Will you attend?
        <select name="attending" required>
          <option value="Yes">Yes</option>
          <option value="No">No</option>
          <option value="Maybe">Maybe</option>
        </select>
      </label>
      <label>
        Number of guests
        <input type="number" name="guests" />
      </label>
      <label>
        Dietary requirements
        <input type="text" name="dietary" />
      </label>
      <!-- honeypot: bots fill this, humans don't see it -->
      <input type="checkbox" name="botcheck" style="display:none" tabindex="-1" autocomplete="off" />
      <button type="submit">Send</button>
    </form>
  );
}
React component (client)
ContactForm.tsx
// ContactForm.tsx — React (works in Vite, CRA, Next 'use client')
"use client";
import { useState } from "react";

export function ContactForm() {
  const [status, setStatus] = useState<"idle" | "ok" | "error">("idle");

  async function onSubmit(e: React.FormEvent<HTMLFormElement>) {
    e.preventDefault();
    const form = e.currentTarget;
    const res = await fetch("https://formloom.vercel.app/api/submit/YOUR_ACCESS_KEY", {
      method: "POST",
      headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json", Accept: "application/json" },
      body: JSON.stringify(Object.fromEntries(new FormData(form))),
    });
    setStatus((await res.json()).success ? "ok" : "error");
    if (status !== "error") form.reset();
  }

  if (status === "ok") return <p>Thanks — we got your message.</p>;
  return (
    <form onSubmit={onSubmit}>
