Forms are an essential part of the web. When you design a fast, static website using Next.js — a landing page for your product or your company, for example— you will want to add a newsletter signup form or contact form. This generally requires some backend logic, which requires time and effort to implement. But you don’t necessarily have to go down to that road.

Next.js is a React-based front-end framework created by Vercel for developing search-engine-friendly static and dynamic web applications. It enables functionality such as server-side rendering and generating static sites.

Getform is a modern form backend platform that lets you handle HTML form submissions on any website or application. It works great for static site form management and acts as a data manager for online forms.

In this guide, I will demonstrate how to add a static file upload form using the simple form backend service Getform on a static site built with Next.js. I will then deploy the ready site with a functioning form using Vercel.
