I mean one a db.. you’d want that regardless and the others the processor.. and ones the form… you’d need those 3 in some variety anyway and technically you could drop the db if you just want it dumped to email id imagine

This is literally a blog recommending to use n8n as your processor… that’s basically it lol he’s just adding ways that can be extended too like noco and metrics



Maybe the article should be titled "Self-hosting forms, the n8n way" then, because if I was working with a dev who did this I would definitely question their sanity.

But as an article about a cool way to utilize n8n, this is fair, and perhaps even elegant.


The author clearly states he is not dev/sysadmin and just playing around for hobby - I think it's totally fine.
