📜 Description
Email is an essential part of the internet today.
In fact, the ability to send messages electronically between computers predates the internet. Despite its age, the technology remains one of the most important, widely-supported ways to communicate digitally. If you're building software online, email remains an integral part of your toolkit.
However, getting it set up for the first time can be surprisingly tricky.
In this article, we'll learn how to add this powerful tool to our apps, using some of the best and most popular tools.
This solution is a tried-and-tested tech stack for email in Node.js. It works as a foundation for both simple side projects and large production apps: at my company, we use a very similar setup to send system emails to 100,000s of users every day.
