Reference and Template

It can be helpful to use a template to build an XLSForm rather than starting from a blank document. The template provided below includes some helpful styling rules as well as extensive reference that is kept updated as XLSForm and the tools that use it evolve. You can use it to see which functionality is supported by Collect and Enketo and get ideas on how to meet your form design goals.

💡 Add the document to your templates in your spreadsheet software to make it easier to find. Don't forget to check back occasionally for updates!

The types, appearances, and additional columns from the template are available below for quick reference. You can use your browser's search feature to find what you're looking for.
