Contributing

This tool is built for freeCodeCamp, so please ensure that all interactions comply with the freeCodeCamp Code of Conduct

Setting Up Your Code

First, fork this repository to your own account. Then use git clone <url> to bring your forked repository down to your local machine (remember to get the URL for your repository, not the original). Optionally, use git remote add upstream <url> to add the original repository as the upstream (this is helpful for keeping your fork up-to-date).

Creating a SendGrid Account

This tool relies on the use of SendGrid's email platform. If you have not set up an account yet, you will need to do so. I've written a tutorial that walks you through this process.

Configuring the Environment

You will need to set the following environment variables:

# These values are REQUIRED for the send tool to work.
SENDGRID_KEY="API Key for Sendgrid"
SENDGRID_FROM="Email address to send emails FROM"

# This line should be changed weekly to set that week's email subject line
MAIL_SUBJECT="Weekly Update!"
