  • My new favorite form plugin - The lighest form around

    As an agency owner, i had an eye on SobiForm for a while but did not tested it until recently, we were heavily relying on FluentForms or WSForms to deliver a complete form experience to client.But thoses plugins are very heavy, sometime being has heavy as the rest of the page it lives on... Compare to that, SobiForm performances are just exeptional !For thoses sites that just need the basics SobiForms is our new go to that give us an edge for delivering very lightweight website, and as a bonus it's really easy to work with and to style as we want with minimal CSS work.Thank you @alesas for this awesome work !I hope the plugin will have a long life and keep this phylosophy along the way :)
