Developer log #15 :: FlexForm
In the beginning of 2022 we dedicated time and resources to release WSForm to the community. Since WSForm wasn't written with a community release in mind, we have completely rewritten the extension.
With the continues work on Open CSP we have also decided to rename WSForm to FlexForm.
