Building a Feedback Widget in 5 Minutes
April 15, 2026 Sarah (Engineering) 4 min read
Every SaaS app needs a feedback widget. But setting up a whole third-party service just to collect a text string and a rating is overkill.
Here is how you can build one natively in React using Rinnode.
The Setup
Create a "Feedback" endpoint in Rinnode. Then, build a floating button in your app that opens a simple modal.
Collect the user's email, their feedback, and the current URL they are on. Send it as a JSON payload to your Rinnode endpoint.
Because Rinnode infers the schema automatically, you don't even need to pre-define the fields. Just send the data, and we will build the table structure on the fly.
Bonus points: Route that feedback directly into your team's Slack channel using our native Slack integration!
