artf··on Show HN: I built an open-source email builder, alternative to Beefree/Unlayer
Honestly, I didn’t invent anything particularly new, but I deeply appreciate your words. Thank you.

Really happy to see people building great things in this space and pushing it forward. Wishing you and Templatical the best!

artf··on Show HN: I built an open-source email builder, alternative to Beefree/Unlayer
As someone who built a similar open source project (grapesjs), this looks really good

Even with LLMs, generating raw HTML emails that render correctly across major email clients is still surprisingly hard, so great choice going with MJML.

Yeah totally, we see the same thing. Most people don't phrase things the way an engineer would but funny enough, LLMs are often better than us at interpreting non technical instructions. What makes a big difference is giving the model context about what the user is actually looking at (current page, selected section, etc.), so it doesn’t have to guess. That way has a decent chance of doing the right thing.

Tools like Lovable are great for spinning up apps, but our focus is different: we’re mainly aiming at websites. Instead of generating a full React app, the editor outputs HTML/CSS and gives you both visual editing and AI assistance, so you’re not stuck relying only on prompts for small changes.

Thanks to everyone for the advice, what do you think about "Build your projects and publish them instantly online"?
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
Yeah I think I got the point, it sounds good but it's pointless
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
Thanks for the great feedback, I'll try to fix issues you mentioned and make it more reliable
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
Yeah thanks, this is exactly what I've done :)

> i see you use ck editor, how was integrating it with page builder?

I made a plugin for the editor and is open source https://github.com/artf/grapesjs-plugin-ckeditor so try to check it out

> how do you host users projects ? i mean is it all in one one virtual machine or something?

Yeah, kind of

artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
Thank you very much for the advice, I'll try to make it more clear
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
Should be fixed now
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
Thank you very much, really appreciate your kind words. BTW I'd rather prefer to keep the "forever free" tier, there you have to use the subdomain and there also "Made with Grapedrop" label, so more people will use the free tier more visibility I gain, at least this is what I think.

ps. the price format should be solved :)

Thank you very much. About the font, can you share what browser/device/OS do you use?
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
I use Sparkpost to send emails, seems just like their links got a bad reputation, so in this case, it's just a false positive. I submitted a ticket
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
A good reason to start share your stuff as soon as possible :)
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
Thanks for your feedback, especially for the what/why approach, it's somehow natural to think about it but showing it more explicitly might be a great point for the potential customer
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
You build your webpage (like you'd do it in grapesjs), which might be even your personal page, then you can decide to export it or just assign a subdomain (custom domains are not available in free accounts) and view it online
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
Just to point few of them: 1. Quick deploy of the site (I mean you don't need to deal with servers, installations, and stuff) 2. They can start collecting leads easily
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
With the free account, you can choose any subdomain and you have automatically the HTTPS enabled

Thank you very much, I'm submitting right now
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
Thank you, now I know what I should not change :)
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
Thanks for sharing, did you figure out the reasons for such a poor rate?
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
My main target, at the moment, should be "small businesses", so from freelancers to startups. Not sure if I'm doing that right, but I'm willing to learn
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
Thanks for such a good feedback. Honestly, I'm a still bit confused how exactly to proceed with the point 1 but I'll try to figure that out. Thanks
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
Is it your general feeling about registration forms or there is something particularly wrong with my form? Thanks
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
Thank you :)
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
Thank you, let me know then
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
So I guess even https://analytics.google.com/ would be a problem there
artf··on Show HN: My new SaaS side-project, after years of open source
I put it on my to-do list :) Thanks
