Start Here
New app? Start with the Catalog to plan which emails your app needs (password reset, verification, etc.), then set up Deliverability (DNS authentication) before sending your first email.
Spam issues? Check Deliverability first—authentication problems are the most common cause. Gmail/Yahoo reject unauthenticated emails.
Marketing emails? Follow this path: Email Capture (collect consent) → Compliance (legal requirements) → Marketing Emails (best practices).
Production-ready sending? Add reliability: Sending Reliability (retry + idempotency) → Webhooks & Events (track delivery) → List Management (handle bounces).
Accessibility?
Most emails fail basic accessibility checks. See Accessibility for lang/dir, presentational tables, headings, alt text, <title>, and contrast.
