Technical details Framaforms is based on Drupal 7, along with several modules. The core of Framaforms is the webform
module, which provides the form-managing features, along with the form builder
module, which allows easy, intuitive, drag'n'drop creating of the forms.
95% of the code existed before Framaforms, but a few features were developped and implemented to provide the right behavior.
