Submify is a self-hosted Form Backend as a Service (FBaaS) stack: a Go (Gin) API, Next.js dashboard, PostgreSQL, S3-compatible object storage (RustFS/MinIO in Compose), and Nginx as a single entrypoint.
I’m excited to share Submify — an open-source, self-hosted Form Backend as a Service (FBaaS).
💥 The problem
If you’ve ever built a website, you know forms are deceptively painful:
You either rely on third-party services (and give away your data 💀)
Or you build everything from scratch (auth, storage, spam protection, dashboards…)
Scaling, file uploads, exports, notifications — it all adds up fast
For developers who care about control, privacy, and ownership, the current options are limiting.
🚀 The solution — Submify
Submify is a fully self-hosted form backend stack that gives you everything you need out of the box:
⚡ Simple JSON form submission API
📊 Clean dashboard to manage submissions
🗂️ Export to XLSX / PDF
🔐 Secure API key-based ingestion
📦 File uploads with S3-compatible storage (MinIO/RustFS)
🔔 Optional Telegram notifications
🧱 Built with Go (Gin), Next.js, PostgreSQL, and Nginx
All running behind a single entry point, deployable with Docker in minutes.
🎯 Why I built this
I wanted a no-middleman solution where:
Your form data stays yours
You can run everything on your own server
And still get a modern dashboard + developer-friendly API
Basically: the power of SaaS, without the SaaS lock-in.
👨💻 Who is this for?
Indie hackers & SaaS builders
Developers building client projects
Agencies managing multiple websites
Anyone who wants a form backend they fully control
🙌 Would love your feedback
This is just the beginning — I’m actively improving it.
