How does MJML work?

With MJML, you can easily develop responsive email without the pain of coding. Its semantic syntax and standard components library speed up your development process, and MJML's open-source engine generates code in under a minute. This open-source engine generates high quality responsive HTML that adheres to best practices. It is an effective tool for creating emails that has a very intuitive interface.

The node mjml-parse is a NodeRED node that parses your MJML template and outputs the HTML.
