here is an example how you can add and edit datas from custom-tables with formit.
It can also create schema and classes, if not exists.
made that for my own excersise. Perhaps others find that usefull too.
use own tableprefix for your custom-tables.
if you want to edit table-row add &resId=yourRowID to your URL <- replace yourRowID with id of tablerow
formit-snippetcall:
[[!FormIt?
&hooks=`spam,formit2db,email`
&preHooks=`db2formit`
&prefix=`modx_regatta_`
&packageName=`mypackage`
&tablename=`ausschreibung`
&emailTpl=`myEmailChunk`
&emailTo=`[email protected]`
&validate=`
nospam:blank,
rennklasse:required,
altersklasse:required`
]]
<h2>Resource Form</h2>
<p>[[+fi.error.error_message]]</p>

there is also a version for resources and TVs on the forums:

If you have changed something on your schema after map-files are created add &parseSchema=`1` to the Formit-snippet-call to recreate your map-files.
Don't forget to remove them when done.
