  CalcMaker is an online form builder, with a focus around creating results real-time in browser, (think like a custom order form, mortgage calculators, etc..). Includes touch-enabled drag and drop interface. I was able to scratch an itch, while working with a client on a new idea.

  Tech stack:

  * Sapper/Svelte

  * Tailwind

  * Google/Firebase: Functions, Firestore, Auth

  * Cloudflare: cdn, workers/kv

  * Stripe: payments

  The entire project (auth, database, payments) comes in normally under 200kb per page, even the heart of the application (the form editor) comes in @ 59kb. Nearly 100's across the board in Lighthouse.. Only a few accessibility issues with the homepage. I'm also experimenting with a mix of exporting sapper and using firebase functions for SSR. If no static file is found in Cloudflare, it falls back to the Firebase SSR / Sapper route.

  Any questions or feedback let me know.
