Email.md addresses the complexity of crafting HTML emails compatible across diverse clients by enabling content creation in Markdown. It targets developers seeking a streamlined workflow, offering responsive, email-safe HTML output and a plain text alternative, significantly reducing the effort and potential for rendering issues ("HTMHELL").

How It Works

The project leverages MJML as its core rendering engine to translate Markdown content into robust, email-client-agnostic HTML. This approach abstracts away the intricacies of traditional HTML email development, allowing users to focus on content structure and messaging rather than intricate CSS and HTML workarounds for different email clients.

Quick Start & Requirements

Installation is straightforward via npm: npm install emailmd. A basic usage example involves importing the render function and passing Markdown strings to generate both HTML and plain text email bodies.
