What This Skill Does

Netlify Forms collects HTML form submissions without any server-side code. Add a `data-netlify="true"` attribute to a form and Netlify handles storage, spam filtering, notifications, and API access to submissions. Works with static HTML and JavaScript frameworks via a static skeleton file. It removes the need to deploy and maintain a form-handling server or third-party service — form detection, spam filtering via Akismet, and submission storage are built into the Netlify build pipeline.
