Go (informally known as Golang) is a popular back-end language born in Google labs back in 2007. The devs behind it were all frustrated with the omnipresent C++ (wonder why!) and, as history shows over and over again, such frustration often leads to building something great. Now, many years later, you might be sitting with a freshly delivered Gopher mascot on your desk, working on a Go project you picked up just for fun… and you’re gradually starting to regret your decision because you got stuck on such a simple thing as sending emails.

Despair no more! We’re covering various approaches for you so you can decide how to best handle such a useful functionality. Let’s get started!

Firebase is a Google-owned web and mobile application development platform that allows you to create high-quality apps and take your business to the next level. You can also use the platform to send emails and enhance the capabilities of your apps.

In this article, we’re going to talk about how to send emails with Firebase and Nodemailer and how to test them with Mailtrap.

When a new user clicks on the Sign up button of an app, he or she usually gets a confirmation email with an activation link (see examples here). This is needed to make sure that the user owns the email address entered during the sign-up. After the click on the activation link, the user is authenticated for the app.

From the user’s standpoint, the email verification process is quite simple. From the developer’s perspective, things are much trickier unless your app is built with Laravel. Those who use Laravel 5.7+ have the user email verification available out-of-the-box. For earlier releases of the framework, you can use a dedicated package to add email verification to your project. In this article, we’ll touch upon each solution you can choose. 

Internet users have become very interested in breaking free from the restricting control of third-party internet providers and getting whatever service they want without intrusion of privacy. Little wonder why Web 3, Blockchain and Decentralization have gone on to be the biggest global buzzwords of this revolutionized era.
