Thank you!

Believe me, writing HTML for email that works for most clients is notoriously hard, no amount of code experience can help with that :)

This was exactly the reason I went with MJML. Consumer should focus on designing the email, Templatical takes care of converting the design to MJML and rest with MJML is already battle-proven.

Totally agree on edge case quirks of MJML - or more like weird behaviors in Outlook. With so many email services and clients around, nothing can provide 100% bulletproof solution but I think MJML is as close as it gets to works-for-majority. I‘m sure MJML maintainers also aim for this.

Also, yes! Microsoft should kill Outlook with fire! :)

Thank you!

Thanks for the star!

Thanks :)

I know each framework has its pros/cons, opinionated in a certain way. Vue is my favorite.

TipTap was the easy half. It's basically the go-to option when a good WYSIWYG editor is needed.

Holy shit, it's you! Thank you, that genuinely means a lot coming from you!

GrapesJS is the forever OG that proved this whole space could be an embeddable SDK rather than a paywalled SaaS. It also standardized the palette/canvas/inspector layout that every serious visual builder now ships by default — including Templatical. I took direct inspiration from a few other patterns too: the block-as-first-class-citizen model, and the trait system, which maps almost 1:1 to how Templatical's custom blocks expose typed fields into the inspector.

And yeah — agreed on MJML. Building email layouts that work for most clients is notoriously hard. I think the people who built MJML absorbed an enormous amount of pain so the rest of us don't have to.

Huge respect for what you built.

Happy to hear you found it useful. :)

I'd love to hear your feedback on what worked and what didn't. Feel free to open an issue or start a discussion on GitHub.

Thanks for the star :)

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

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.

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.

Amazing to hear :)

If you ship your app with it, send a link — happy to feature it on the showcase page. Also, if you have existing HTML-based templates, try the @templatical/import-html package to convert them to Templatical JSON true — should get you a reasonably close starting point.

Thanks.

No — built from scratch on Vue 3 + TipTap, no React anywhere. Output is MJML, not the React-component-to-HTML approach React Email takes.

Adjacent category but no shared foundation: React Mail is a code-first library for devs to write emails as components; Templatical is an embedded visual editor for marketers to build them without touching code.
