mailbag VS webby

I also maintain a fairly minimal, as far as options/alternatives go in this area, email list managing/sending (MailChimp alternative) app: https://github.com/ssddanbrown/mailbag

If anyone's looking for an open source alternative, I built a relatively feature-minimal Laravel-based option in this space when I wanted to migrate from Mailchimp: https://github.com/ssddanbrown/mailbag

Personally, when recently built my own Laravel-based email-list-sending app, I just decided to stick to plaintext. I worked in email marketing automation for 7 years so did a lot of email building and handling work, and I didn't want to be doing that in my free time, so I kept things simple and plaintext only. Worked well for my audience since they're often tech/privacy focused. Source here if you wanted a peek.

MailBag - A simple email subscription app I threw together after getting fed-up with Mailchimp.

I created a Laravel-based mailing app as an alternative to Mailchimp for sending email notifications/updates for another OpenSource project of mine. Here it is: https://github.com/ssddanbrown/mailbag

I wrote something like this [1] for the team at my old workplace. We mainly worked on static html files but some functionality required loading via http. Many of the devs were quite new to development in general, so I built a simple static server in Go, as an exe which they could set as the default for `.html` file, and therefore just open via the webserver via double-click as normal. The program would watch the directory (if not already open and watching) then open the right path in the default browser. I also built-in livereload, management via tray icon and a basic web UI.
