Email Formatting

Format emails with our signature neo-brutal design aesthetic.

Quick Start

For plain text emails, use directly:

# Plain text - no formatting needed
text = "Your message here"

For HTML emails, use templates:

python scripts/format_email.py --template daily-report --data data.json

Neo-Brutal Design Principles

Our email design follows neo-brutal aesthetic:

Bold typography: Strong, thick fonts
High contrast: Black text on white, bright accent colors
Thick borders: 3-4px solid black borders
Flat colors: No gradients, solid blocks
Geometric shapes: Rectangles, squares
Brutalist layout: Grid-based, chunky sections

Available Templates

1. Daily Report (`daily-report`)

For daily activity summaries (GitHub, Fieldy, etc.)

Data structure:

{
  "title": "Daily GitHub Report",
  "date": "2026-01-04",
  "summary": "Brief overview",
  "sections": [
    {
      "title": "Commits",
      "content": "HTML content",
      "items": ["item 1", "item 2"]
    }
  ],
  "stats": {
    "total_commits": 5,
    "files_changed": 12
  }
}

2. Simple Message (`simple`)

For plain formatted messages

Data structure:

{
  "title": "Message Title",
  "body": "Message body text",
  "footer": "Optional footer"
}

3. Data Table (`data-table`)

For tabular data display

Data structure:

{
  "title": "Report Title",
  "headers": ["Column 1", "Column 2"],
  "rows": [
    ["Value 1", "Value 2"],
    ["Value 3", "Value 4"]
  ]
}

Base HTML Template

All templates use this base structure:

<html>
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
