Introducing CheckOps: A Production-Ready Form Builder SDK

I'm excited to announce the release of CheckOps v1.0.0, a Node.js SDK that makes it easy to build dynamic forms with PostgreSQL 18 and JSONB storage.

Why CheckOps?

Building form systems is repetitive work. You need:

  • Dynamic question management
  • Flexible data storage
  • Validation & sanitization
  • Analytics
  • Security

CheckOps handles all of this out of the box.

Quick Example 

import CheckOps from '@saiqa-tech/checkops';

const checkops = new CheckOps({
  host: 'localhost',
  database: 'myapp',
  // ... config
});

await checkops.initialize();

// Create a form
const form = await checkops.createForm({
  title: 'Customer Feedback',
  questions: [
    {
      questionText: 'How would you rate us?',
      questionType: 'rating',
      options:,[1]
      required: true
    }
  ]
});

// Submit response
const submission = await checkops.createSubmission({
  formId: form.id,
  submissionData: {
    'How would you rate us?': 5
  }
});

// Get analytics
const stats = await checkops.getSubmissionStats(form.id);
