BackdropCMS offers several options for creating forms, including the Webform module, the core Contact module, and other contributed modules.

1. The Webform module is a powerful and flexible tool for creating forms.

   It allows you to build complex forms with a drag-and-drop interface, making it easy to add form elements like text fields, checkboxes, radio buttons, file uploads, and more. The module provides a range of features such as conditional logic, multi-page forms, form validation, email notifications, and integration with third-party services.

The Webform module also offers advanced features like form submissions management, data exports, analytics, and the ability to create surveys and questionnaires. It provides a user-friendly interface for configuring form settings, managing form submissions, and customizing form behavior.

2. BackdropCMS core comes with a Contact module that enables you to create simple contact forms. The Contact module allows you to set up a basic contact form with fields for name, email, subject, and message. It provides a default contact form that can be easily enabled and customized according to your needs.

While the core Contact module offers limited functionality compared to the Webform module, it is suitable for basic contact forms and can be extended using contributed modules to add more features like file attachments, anti-spam measures, and custom validation.

3. Other Form Solutions: In addition to the Webform and Contact modules, Backdrop offers various contributed modules that provide additional form-building capabilities.  

These are just a few examples of the form-building options. The choice of module or approach depends on the complexity and specific requirements of your forms. You can tailor your forms to suit your needs, whether it's a simple contact form or a complex multi-page survey.
