Hermes is a Go package that generates clean, responsive HTML emails for transactional mail such as welcome, password-reset, and receipt emails, with plain-text fallbacks. It is a Go port of the Node.js mailgen engine and supports configurable themes and product branding.
Use cases
- generate transactional email html in go
- send welcome and password reset emails with nice templates
- responsive html email templates for receipts
- plain text fallback for html emails
- branded email templates for a go application
When to choose
- you build a Go backend that sends transactional emails
- you want prebuilt responsive email themes without hand-writing HTML
- you need both HTML and plain-text versions of an email
When to avoid
- you need to actually send emails over SMTP - Hermes only generates the content
- your stack is Node.js, where the original mailgen may fit better
- you need highly custom, pixel-perfect email designs beyond the provided themes
