About This Project

Born from real-world frustration with backend-owned email templates, this project provides a clean separation of concerns between email design and email sending.

Frontend engineers can now own the entire email experience using familiar React patterns, while backend teams simply consume a type-safe package with guaranteed correctness.

The architecture includes a Plop generator for scaffolding, automatic TypeScript type generation, and a serverless render function for on-demand HTML generation.
