Demo Applications

Embedded Signature Pad

Node.js / Express

A realistic SEPA Direct Debit Mandate signing flow. The user fills in personal data, the server generates a mandate PDF on the fly, creates an inSign session, and the signature pad is rendered inline - all without leaving the page.

Key concepts: Embedded mode, JWT authentication, ##SIG{...} tags, cookieless browser-to-server communication, dynamic PDF generation with signature fields

Java Spring Boot Sample

Java / Spring Boot / Maven

Full backend integration demonstrating session creation, document upload, external signing invitations, real-time status tracking, webhook handling, and document download. Features a pluggable API client architecture - swap implementations by changing one Maven dependency.

Key concepts: Pluggable API clients, convention-based JSON mapping, forward-compatible POJO model, SSE real-time events, webhook integration
