# Send email using Azure Communication Email
> Learn how to send an email using React Email and the Azure Communication Email SDK.
## 1. Install dependencies
Get the [react-email](https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-email) package and the [Azure Communication Email SDK](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@azure/communication-email).
```sh npm theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"vesper"}}
npm install @azure/communication-email react-email
```
```sh yarn theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"vesper"}}
yarn add @azure/communication-email react-email
```
```sh pnpm theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"vesper"}}
pnpm add @azure/communication-email react-email
```
## 2. Create an email using React
Start by building your email template in a `.jsx` or `.tsx` file.
```tsx email.tsx theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"vesper"}}
import * as React from 'react';
import { Html, Button } from "react-email";
export function Email(props) {
const { url } = props;
return (
);
}
```
## 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.
```tsx theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"vesper"}}
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();
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.
