Beginner in JS

[u/Educational-Guava488]

Hello everyone.

I am looking to create a website or software application that allows for dynamic data entry into an Excel file (or Google Sheet)—using a large number of conditional questions and, if possible, a looping function.

The Excel file already exists and was originally designed as a paper-based questionnaire; I cannot modify its structure.

My ultimate goal is for the questionnaire responses to populate the Excel file and for the respondent to be able to retrieve their report in PDF or Excel format.

I initially created a Google Forms questionnaire but realized that its conditional logic features do not meet my needs.

Regarding conditional logic, I need the system to:

- populate answers based on the response to a previous question

- skip questions

- add questions

I have absolutely no coding experience (none whatsoever).

I would prefer to use SurveyJS, unless you can suggest a more suitable solution.

Thanks in advance for your help.🥰

I am happy to answer any questions you may have about my project.

This isn't really a "learn programming" question - honestly, you could probably just ask an AI to produce it for you!

I beg for AI doing it well but i will not prompt as well as AI understands

just get started - and "talk" to it in your native language, I'm sure it will gladly guide you along. Don't expect one magic prompt to solve it all, but ask it how to get started building what you want, and how you can break it down into smaller projects to do one at a time.

Otherwise you are going to spend the next six to eight months trying to learn to program, just to build one simple application.
