Node Welcome Emails

Introduction

In this assignment, I implemented an example sign up page which sends you an email to your submitted accoutn information upon successful sign up.

Technologies Used

Nodemailer, Node, Express, SendGrid

Getting Started

For setting up on your local machine, first clone the repository, then install the dependencies. Create a .env file in the root directory with the following information:

EMAIL_USER=YOUR_EMAIL
EMAIL_PASS=YOUR_PASS

This is the email account that nodemailer will use to send your emails. If using a gmail account, you will need to enable less secure apps to access your account.

Finally, run the app with node app.js.

A deployed version of this project may be found here.

Please check your spam emails if you haven't received anything after a few minutes. You should receive a message from the SendGrid service.
