## What it is
A step-by-step tutorial showing how to send email from a static HTML form (e.g. a 'Contact Us' page) using Google Apps Script, with no backend server required. Form submissions are also stored in a Google Spreadsheet for easy viewing.

## Use cases
- add a contact form to a static website without a backend
- send email from an html form with no server
- collect form submissions in a google spreadsheet
- build a contact us page for a static site
- handle form submissions without php or node
- store website form data for non-technical users

## When to choose
- you host a static site and need a contact or data-collection form
- you want zero backend to deploy, maintain, or pay for
- you want submissions saved to a spreadsheet shareable with non-technical people
- you rely on Gmail's high email deliverability

## When to avoid
- you need high-volume email beyond Google Apps Script daily quotas
- you must keep form data entirely off Google's cloud (e.g. GDPR concerns)
- you need full control over the email-sending infrastructure
- you require a self-hosted or privacy-focused form backend
