Is it possible to use it for sending emails?

Is there a way to use templ for sending emails? I'm doing a personal project and want to use it to send emails (recommendations of libs to send email are welcome too).

Templ can generate emails, yes! It cannot send them though, you would need to use something like amazon SES or similar for the sending of the emails once generated.

Than you so much man appreciate it, I know it might be asking for much but do you have an example, like basic, like just sending a Hello World email.

No examples to hand no sorry.

Here is the docs on how to send an email with SES: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-go/v1/developer-guide/ses-example-send-email.html

It requires your HTML as a string to send it using SES, you can render a templ component to a string like this:

var b bytes.Buffer
err := myComponent(data).Render(context.Background(), &b)
if err != nil {
    // handle err
}
htmlString := b.String()
