    MJML-React Email Manager

  • Since you mention MJML: I wrote a little tool called mjmgr which was meant to be a prototype of a MJML email manager for a bunch of providers. So that you can keep the source code of the MJML email checked in, but deploy it as compiled templates across various email template providers.

    I only really did sendgrid and mailgun, but as a POC it worked well. Just putting this out there because it's useful but I don't touch it much anymore.

    MJML: the only framework that makes responsive-email easy

  • Last time I had to deal with emails, I've used https://mjml.io/ and was very happy with it. You can version the templates, compile them as part of your build pipeline and it seems to do produce very _adequate_ HTML full of tables that looks good on all clients that we tested.
