​
1. Install dependencies

Get the react-email package and the Azure Communication Email SDK. 
npm install @azure/communication-email react-email

​
2. Create an email using React

Start by building your email template in a .jsx or .tsx file.
email.tsx
import * as React from 'react';
import { Html, Button } from "react-email";

export function Email(props) {
  const { url } = props;

  return (
    <Html lang="en">
      <Button href={url}>Click me</Button>
    </Html>
  );
}

​
3. Convert to HTML and send email

Import the email template you just built, convert into an HTML string, and use the Azure Communication Email SDK to send it. 
import { EmailClient } from '@azure/communication-email';
import { render } from 'react-email';
import { Email } from './email';

const client = new EmailClient(process.env.AZURE_EMAIL_CONNECTION_STRING);

const from ='you@example.com';
const emailHtml = await render(<Email url="https://example.com" />);

const message = {
  senderAddress: from,
  content: {
    subject: 'hello world',
    html: emailHtml,
  },
  recipients: {
    to: [{ address: 'user@gmail.com' }],
  },
};

const poller = await client.beginSend(message);

await poller.pollUntilDone();
Azure Communication Email expects the sender in the senderAddress field.
