## What it is
A Node.js package that programmatically generates clean, responsive HTML emails for transactional mail, with bundled themes and plaintext output. It pairs well with nodemailer, which handles the actual sending.

## Use cases
- generate welcome emails in node.js
- create responsive html email templates programmatically
- send password reset emails with a nice design
- generate order receipt emails from javascript
- produce plaintext fallback versions of transactional emails
- brand transactional emails with a product logo and theme

## When to choose
- you need to generate transactional email HTML from Node.js without hand-writing email templates
- you want responsive, client-compatible email layouts with minimal effort
- you already use nodemailer and just need the email body

## When to avoid
- you need to send emails itself - mailgen only generates content
- you need fully custom email designs beyond the bundled themes
- your stack is not JavaScript/Node.js

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: templating, email
- domain: email, web-development, developer-tools
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: transactional-email, html-email, responsive-email, email-templates, nodemailer-companion, nodejs
