best for
Developer-led email teams that author HTML directly and want previews in the same editor.

pros
- › Code-first editor purpose-built for email HTML
- › Live previews across major clients with dark-mode toggle
- › Components, partials, and version control reduce template duplication
cons
- › Smaller preview matrix than full Litmus
- › Owned by Litmus, so positioning may shift over time
- › Not a sender; pairs with a separate transactional or marketing platform
