All of these set out with specific purposes in mind, whether collecting surveys or creating node content. The task of actually <em>building the form</em> was secondary to the task of using the form. This is where the Form Builder project comes in. Form Builder provides a single, universal interface for creating form structures.</p> <div class="field field-type-text field-field-audience"> <div class="field-label">Intended Audience:&nbsp;</div> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> This talk is intended for primarily for developers interested in developing using Form Builder.
