Hello everyone. I am wanting to build a web app or something to send in a flour order for the bakery i run. I have about 20 items at any given time and would input numbers from 1-100 for each item. i would like to be able to hit send and have it be sent as an email or text to a specific person. I tried building the page just using html and forms but it was horribly inefficient.
im picturing a page that i can have cached on my phone. input my order while im on the floor and hit send
thanks Justin

On the other hand, this would be a typical server-side function.
