This is really awesome. I'm showing this to my marketing team - we were looking for something similar in the past too. I've had the pleasure of attempting to build fancy marketing emails and a signature and I never wanna look at a Word Table in my life again.

#32This is cool! I looked for this in the past. This is the main reason we bothered with mailchimp/hubspot -- simply the ability for nontechnical marketing people to put together nice emails, and the trust that we won't need an engineer to troubleshoot email formatting on their behalf. I remember trying some OSS tools at the time (8 years ago?) and there were some templates we used but then when we wanted to modify them…
I remember doing a MailChimp "clone" in Laravel some 12 years ago and implementing an email builder using their templates

#35I was thinking this is so nice but too bad I can't use it because I'm so deep into Unlayer. Then I see the the migration page :)

Yes! If you attempt the migration, I'd love to hear your feedback on what worked and what didn't. GitHub Issues / Discussions both open.

#38Great idea. I starred this on GitHub, where by the way for those are interested, your star will be statistically significant (only about 100 now).

People who know how painful email HTML is are the exact audience here. I believe MJML is the best thing that happened to emails — eliminates almost all the cross-client compatibility quirks.
If your team gives it a spin, I'd genuinely love their feedback.

Thanks for the star :)
And yeah — at this stage every star is statistically significant, so anyone reading: appreciated.
