Template #5 - Enketo template

[joeflack4]

Description

Enketo has pretty templates. Since these are HTML, it should be possible Enketo as a dependency, and generate forms in any file output format.

Additional information

From Martijn van de Rijdt, July 12:

Cool stuff @Joseph_E_Flack_IV! I think it's great to have another tool in the ODK Ecosystem that can be used for printing/pdf-ing/converting!

If you're going the Enketo route in the future, here is some (perhaps) useful info:

API for direct PDF creating in multiple paper formats, orientation, margins and themes: https://apidocs.enketo.org/v2#/post-survey-view-pdf. This is another example output using the Grid Theme: Fatal injury surveillance data collection form (short version).pdf (108.7 KB). So far I don't think this feature has been made available to users yet (in e.g. KoBo or Ona). I'm particularly excited about this as it takes away the pain of dealing with printing consistently across multiple browsers (it uses Chrome headless (puppeteer) on the server - which maybe you are using as well?).
If you're ever considering using XForms as the basis, this is the XSL stylesheet (using XSLT) Enketo is using to transform XML to HTML: https://github.com/enketo/enketo-xslt/tree/master/xsl
Creating another theme: https://github.com/enketo/enketo-core#notes-for-css-developers (sorry, this really needs better documentation) and https://github.com/kobotoolbox/enketo-express#themes.
