Your basically looking for a wufoo or jotform type of functionality?

You could use something like https://github.com/IhabSoliman/Bootstrap-Form-Builder (for the UI side). I would store the formposts in mongodb probably (that way you don't have to create collumns and have your schema match the form thats created).

I've done somethign simple like so:

    <?php namespace OCA\Webforms\Classes;
    
    use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Input;
    use OCA\Webforms\Models\Formposts;
    use OCA\Webforms\Models\Ocaform as OcaformsModel;
    
    class Ocaforms extends \Controller
    {
    
        private $rules = [
          //'ocaform_id' => 'required',
        ];
    
        private $ocaform;
    
        private $post;
    
        public function store($secret)
        {
            $this->ocaform = OcaformsModel::where('secret', '=', $secret)->first();
            if(! $this->ocaform){
                \Redirect::back();
                //@todo display error
            }
    
            $data = Input::All();
    
            // clean the data first
            array_walk_recursive($data, array($this, 'cleanData'));
    
            // allow multiple redirects.  Do it this way so we don't specify the redirect URL in form html... specify rdata="1" or something
            $redirects = explode(',',$this->ocaform->redirect_url);
            if( count($redirects) == 1 ){
                $redirecturl = trim($redirects[0]);
            }
            else if(!isset($data['rdata'])) {
                $redirecturl = trim($redirects[0]);
            }
            else {
                $redirecturl = trim($redirects[intval($data['rdata'])]);
            }
    
            // set rdata as redirecturl instead of number
            $data['rdata'] = $redirecturl;
    
            $data['ocaform_id'] = $this->ocaform->id;
            $data['http_referer'] = \Request::header('referer');
            $validator = \Validator::make($data, $this->rules);
            if ($validator->fails())
            {
                return \Redirect::back()->withErrors($validator)->withInput(); //@todo this needs to show a page w/ errors on it... then redirect back.
            }
    
            // save post
            $this->post = Formposts::create($data);
    
            if(! $this->post){
                //@todo display error
            }
            $this->sendEmails();
    
            // tokenize the redirect url
            $helpers = new Helpers();
            $redirecturl = $helpers->tokenizeString($redirecturl, $this->post);
    
            return \Redirect::away($redirecturl);
        }
    
        public function sendEmails()
        {
            $helpers = new Helpers();
    
            $emails = $this->ocaform->emails()->get();
            foreach($emails as $email){
                $subject = $helpers->tokenizeString($email->subject, $this->post);
                $body = $helpers->tokenizeString($email->emailbody, $this->post);
                $toemail = explode("\r\n",$email->emails);
                $data = compact('body','subject','toemail');
                foreach ($toemail as $to){
                    \Queue::push('OCA\Webforms\Classes\SendEmails@send', array('data' => $data, 'subject' => $subject, 'to' => $to));
                }
            }
        }
    
    
        public function getDatatable($ocaform_id)
        {
            $helpers = new Helpers();
            $header = $helpers->getLastpostHeader($ocaform_id);
    
            return \Datatable::collection(Formposts::where('ocaform_id', intval($ocaform_id))->orderBy('created_at', 'desc')->get($header))
                ->showColumns($header)
                ->make();
        }
    
        private function cleanData(&$value)
        {
            $value = htmlspecialchars($value, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8');
        }
    
    }

my helpers file:

        {
            $postdata = \DB::connection('mongodb')->collection('formposts')->where('ocaform_id', intval($ocaform_id))->orderBy('created_at', 'desc')->first();
    
            $postdata = $this->getPostdata($postdata);
    
            if($withValues){
                return $postdata;

                $tokens['replace'][] = $post;
    
                $allformdata .= "<strong>$key</strong>: $post\n<br/>";
            }
            $tokens['search'][] = "%allFormData%";
            $tokens['replace'][] = $allformdata;

            if ($asDataTable){
