Build Commands

Run npm start to kick off the build process. A new browser tab will open with a server pointing to your project files.

Run npm run build to inline your CSS into your HTML along with the rest of the build process.

Run npm run litmus to build as above, then submit to litmus for testing. AWS S3 Account details required (config.json)

Run npm run zip to build as above, then zip HTML and images for easy deployment to email marketing services.

You can add a language (en by default) by adding:

-- --lang=cn
{
"helloworld":"你好"
}
{{!-- This is the base layout for your project, and will be used on every page. --}}
