Because headings and paragraphs use the same tag, I imagine screen readers struggle a bit with the content. I'm also a bit concerned about the accessibility implications. It won't help us at all if we dump a bunch of custom HTML inside an tag! Of course, MJML can only help us if we follow its conventions.

I sent an email generated with MJML to about 30,000 people, asking them to let me know if anything looked busted.

MJML won't process anything inside an tag. You can create headings by applying cosmetic styles as inline attributes, like: It doesn't exactly map onto an tag - for example, we can add an href attribute, and it'll wrap that image in an anchor tag, linking to the provided URL.Ĭuriously, all text elements (paragraphs and headings) use the same tag. There are a ton of MJML tags for various things, like, which renders a stretchy responsive image. This is the fundamental thing that makes MJML emails “responsive”. On smaller screens, though, the columns stack vertically. On a large screen, columns will sit side-by-side, as if in a Flex row.
