Description

As a temporary "hack", the contribution form opens the user's email client, fills in the subject and body from the form entries, then lets the user send the email. It would be better to replace this with a "normal" form submission to our web service of choice.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Understand the current email hack in the contribution form, then create a web service endpoint (e.g., using a serverless function or a simple backend) to receive the form data and process it. Look into services like Formspree or building a custom endpoint. Ensure the new method handles data submission and confirmation.
