I developed a form builder application using the PXCI stack, which includes Xata, Prisma, Inngest, and Clerk. This combination offers a solid foundation for building, managing, and processing dynamic forms. Here’s a quick rundown of how each component is utilized:

Use of the PXCI Stack:

Xata: Xata serves as the database for the form builder. It provides a scalable, serverless solution for storing and retrieving form data. With its user-friendly interface and powerful querying capabilities, managing form data and submissions becomes straightforward.

Prisma: Prisma is our ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) tool, which simplifies database interactions. It allows for type-safe database queries and makes complex operations easier to handle. By integrating Prisma with Xata, we ensure our data models are well-structured and easily accessible.

Inngest: Inngest is used to manage and orchestrate background tasks and workflows. This is crucial for processing form submissions, sending notifications, and handling other asynchronous operations. By using Inngest, we maintain the application's performance and responsiveness by offloading these tasks to the background.

Clerk: Clerk is responsible for user authentication and management. It provides secure, ready-to-use authentication solutions, including sign-up, login, and user profile management. With Clerk, we ensure that only authorized users can access and interact with the application, enhancing security and user experience.

Combining these technologies, the form builder application offers efficient data management, secure user authentication, and smooth processing of background tasks, making it a comprehensive solution for dynamic form creation and management.
