🔧 Sending Emails in Nuxt 3: How I Handle Emails in My SaaS Boilerplate
Nachrichtenbereich: 🔧 Programmierung
🔗 Quelle: dev.to
If you're building anything serious in Nuxt 3, you'll need to send emails.
Here's my setup that lets you switch between Resend, SendGrid, or any other provider without rewriting code.
The Setup
- AdonisJS Mail (I made it work outside AdonisJS so it works with any JS backend)
- Vue Email for templates
- Works with any email provider (Resend, AWS SES, Mailgun, Sparkpost, Brevo, Custom SMTP)
Basic Configuration
const generateMailer = async () => {
const mailer = await generateMailer({
default: "resend",
from: {
address: "[email protected]",
name: "SaaS Boilerplate",
},
mailers: {
resend: transports.resend({
key: process.env.RESEND_API_KEY || "",
baseUrl: "https://api.resend.com",
}),
// Easy to add more providers!
sendgrid: transports.sendgrid({
key: process.env.SENDGRID_API_KEY || "",
})
},
});
return mailer;
};
Email Templates with Vue Email
Here's a simple magic link email template:
<template>
<Html>
<Body>
<Container>
<Heading>Sign In to Your Account</Heading>
<Text>Hi {{ username }},</Text>
<Text>Click the button below to sign in:</Text>
<Section>
<Button :href="signInLink">Sign In</Button>
</Section>
<Text>
Or copy this link:
<Link :href="signInLink">{{ signInLink }}</Link>
</Text>
<Hr />
<Text>This link expires in 1 hour.</Text>
</Container>
</Body>
</Html>
</template>
<script setup lang="ts">
import {
Body, Button, Container, Heading,
Html, Link, Section, Text, Hr
} from "@vue-email/components";
interface Props {
username?: string;
signInLink?: string;
}
withDefaults(defineProps<Props>(), {
username: "User",
signInLink: "https://app.example.com/sign-in",
});
</script>
Sending Emails
import MagicLinkSignIn from "~/emails/MagicLinkSignIn.vue";
const mailer = await getMailer();
await mailer.send(async (message) => {
message
.to(email)
.subject("Magic Link Sign In")
.html(
await render(MagicLinkSignIn, {
username: user?.name,
signInLink: url,
})
);
});
Cool Features from AdonisJS Mail
AdonisJS Mail comes with tons of powerful features that we can use:
- Multiple Transport Support: Switch between email providers with one line of code
- Calendar Events: Attach calendar invites to your emails
- File Attachments: Easily attach files, streams, or buffers
- HTML/Text Templates: Support for both HTML and plain text emails
For example, attaching a calendar invite is as simple as:
message.icalEvent((calendar) => {
calendar.createEvent({
summary: 'Team Meeting',
start: DateTime.local().plus({ minutes: 30 }),
end: DateTime.local().plus({ minutes: 60 }),
})
});
Why this works well
- Switch providers anytime
- Write templates in Vue
- Easy to test
- All the power of AdonisJS Mail in any JS backend

This email setup is part of my Nuxt SaaS boilerplate.
If you're building a SaaS, check it out—it comes with type-safe APIs using tRPC, enterprise-grade RBAC (role-based access control), and production-ready features like auth, team management, and billing.
Every feature is built with the same attention to developer experience as this email system.
