    A mail didn't display so I looked. Terrible HTML, no text alt, and this gem: a div with display:none!important, visibility:hidden!important, font-size=1px, white on white, containing only space characters & zero-width joiners. They *really* don't want us to see that!

    Thanks. These sorts of criticisms of irritate me to no end. Is it a niche? Yes, maybe. But it doesn't have to be. It's a far more efficient system for data manipulation/REST interaction than from-scratch Dev in other langs

    UK NHS started a project for a health records system: 70 people; cost £10M; hardware costs alone were £5 per patient. It failed. One person then created a system using XForms. Hardware costs 1p per patient; runs on Raspberry Pi's; now running in 5 NHS hospitals.
