In simple English
Writing emails that look correct in every inbox is surprisingly hard. This tool gives you a visual drag-and-drop editor to build your emails on a web page. It writes the complex code behind the scenes automatically. You can plug it directly into your own React web application. It costs nothing to use under an open source licence, but you need programming skills to set it up.
What it is
Easy Email Editor is a React component library built on top of MJML, a markup language specifically designed for responsive emails. It lets developers embed a full-featured email design interface into their own web applications.
