Hi @Revolution, using Webflow-powered forms is not a requirement, though we do have it set as the default since it’s the easiest option. If you export your code, you have several options:
- Change the
actionproperty on the form to point to your own server (PHP, etc) - Integrate your form with you Mailchimp account (instructions here: http://forum.webflow.com/t/mailchimp-signup-form-integration/1331)
- Use an external forms provider like Wufoo, and embed that form using a Form Block
Forms are inherently hard since they include a server-side component, so it’s not possible for Webflow to completely remove the dependency without breaking the forms. I hope that makes sense
