| 7 | +## Overview |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +This example demonstrates how to use Trigger.dev to send emails using React Email. |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +<Note> |
| 12 | + This example uses [Resend](https://resend.com) as the email provider. You can use other email |
| 13 | + providers like [SendGrid](https://sendgrid.com) or [Loops](https://loops.so) as well. Full list of |
| 14 | + their integrations can be found [here](https://react.email/docs/introduction#integrations). |
| 15 | +</Note> |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +## Task code |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +<Warning> |
| 20 | + This email is built using React components. To use React components in your task, it must be a |
| 21 | + .tsx file. |
| 22 | +</Warning> |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +```tsx trigger/sendReactEmail.tsx |

| 28 | + |
| 29 | +// Initialize Resend client |
| 30 | +const resend = new Resend(process.env.RESEND_API_KEY); |
