  service: 'your-email-service', // Example- `gmail`, `yahoo` etc.
  user: 'your-email@example.com', // your email address (sender/from)
  pass: 'your-email-password', // your app password for your email account
  name: 'your-display-name'
};
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Notes:

  1. Replace placeholders like your-email@example.com, your-display-name, with your actual details.
  2. Use gmail, yahoo etc. in service placeholder. Whereever is your actual email account in.

Yahoo : Follow instructions to get app password for yahoo mail.

Gmail : Follow Google App Password to get app password.

const subject = 'This is Your Email subject'

emailSender

    console.log(message)
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    console.error(error)
  })
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

[!Note] Remember !
This package is primarily for backend usage only. Because it is node.js based and that doesn't run on browser.
If you want to use this on frontend (browser), you need to run your frontend on server (server-side rendering) using express.
