This email designer was originally built for use within SENDUNE (formerly Send With SES).

• Truly Open Source: Use it for personal use or commercial use or whatever.
• Truly Free: Because the ones that say 'free', are not.
• Truly Works: Because the ones that are free don't seem to work.
• Truly HTML: No intermediate code wranglers like mjml.
• Truly Fast and Light Weight: Because you have better things to do with your time.
• Truly No-Code: Design like a pro without coding headaches. Our minimal interface gets out of your way.
• Truly Democratic: Save HTML output as a template and use with ANY email service provider.

Comes with three template types that let you design any kind of transactional or marketing emails. Altogther, you can create and save unlimited templates.

• Drag and Drop Designer - Start designing beautiful emails immediately.
• HTML Code Editor - Reuse HTML templates that you already have or code them from scratch.
• Plain Text Emails - 'Minimalists'. This is for you.

You can make a few changes to make the Email Designer match your website colors.

Import the following styles into your global styles file (e.g., styles.scss):

@import '../node_modules/email-designer/src/lib/theme.scss';
@import '../node_modules/email-designer/src/lib/email-editor.css';

To make the Email Designer match your website's UI, include the following in your main.scss or styles.scss file and change the colors as you like.

 :root {
    --sws-icon-color: #ccc;
    --sws-icon-hover-color: #555;
    --sws-header-background: #eee;
    --sws-header-text-color: #555;
    --sws-border-color: #ccc;
 }

SENDUNE Designer focuses on simplicity and ease of use over a heavy feature set. Over years of sending emails, we've come across some email patterns that work and many that don't. Some are design related while some are organisation related. Let's break some bubbles here - in no particular order.

• Remember, you are designing an email, not a website. If you want fine-grain controls like 'line heights', you are at the wrong place.
• The more you nitpick on the design, the more likely it will break in email clients. (i.e. more moving parts == more breakages).
• Transactional emails are best delivered in plain text.
• For best results, HTML emails (transactional and marketing) must (mostly) fit 'above the fold'.
• Rethink your design if it is more than one scroll depth.
• The combined time spent by all the recipients who opened your marketing email will be lesser than the time you spent designing it. (This statement is an exaggeration, but you get the drift.)
• Emails are being designed to impress bosses, not the end readers.
• Avoiding spam folders is largely a function of the content of your email. Technology or the pedigree of your email sending service cannot help you if your content is unsolicited.
• The top three email service providers control ~80% of the market. They can break you.
