What should I know before I get started?

Code of Conduct

This project adheres to the Contributor Covenant code of conduct. By participating, you are expected to uphold this code. Please report unacceptable behavior to [email protected].

Packages

MJML is made up of different packages, which make it very modular but might also make it hard for you to know how it is organized.

There are 3 types of packages:

  • mjml-core: the engine that renders mjml components

  • mjml-cli: the client, base on the mjml-core interface

  • mjml: a standalone client including the standard library of components

  • one standalone package for each component

How Can I Contribute?

Reporting Bugs

Here are the guidelines to help maintainers and the community better understand and solve your issue.

Before Submitting a Bug Report or Enhancement

  • Check the FAQ for a list of common questions and problems

  • Check the documentation for more details on how to use MJML, MJML components, how to create a custom component and more

  • Search issues and pull requests to see if a similar one might have been already asked before

How To Submit A Good Bug Report or Enhancement?

Explain the problem you’re facing and include as many details as you can to help maintainers reproduce the problem:

  • Use a clear and self-explanatory title

  • Provide all the specific information that might be needed to reproduce the problem, such as:

    • How you’re using MJML (whether you’re using the try it live, running it locally, using the app, or any other way)

    • The version of MJML you’re using

    • The MJML code you used to encounter this bug, as copy/pasteable snippets, using Markdown Code Blocks

    • The name and version of the email client(s) on which a bug is encountered

    • Screenshots of the issue / behaviour before enhancement on the given email clients

    • Explain why what you encountered is a bug / how your enhancement would improve MJML: what did you expect to see and why?

  • If you want MJML to support a new styling attribute, **add screenshots **from Litmus or Email On Acid showing that this attribute is supported for email clients supported by MJML
