Choose an HTML Email Framework

There is no single best framework — the right choice depends on the user's existing stack, modernity preferences, and how much email-client abstraction they want.

Decision guide

Ask the user these questions (skip any they've already answered):

1. Existing stack? Tailwind-centric → Maizzle. Sass/Gulp → Foundation. No preference → MJML (lowest friction).
2. How often will they edit templates? One-off → MJML. Ongoing design system → Foundation or Maizzle.
3. Modern Node tooling matter? Yes → Maizzle or MJML. Willing to tolerate legacy → Foundation.
4. Who edits the templates? Developers only → any. Designers/marketers too → MJML (simplest syntax).
