Introduction

Today we're going to build a node.js application to collect email addresses using Kickbox. We'll be using Express and Request on the server side, and jQuery on the client.

We'll be using Glitch during this tutorial, because it provides an environment, editor, and hosting in one convenient package. There's an example of the completed project too. If you want to follow along in your own environment, all of the code will work.

What is Recipient Authentication?

Recipient Authentication makes it easy to collect email addresses the right way. We handle account activation, double email opt-in subscriptions, and password resets. We make sure the email gets delivered, send drip reminders, expire old links, handle opt-outs, and automatically add authenticated addresses to your email service provider or marketing platform.
