[@yidan_wang_ittan]

Brett, 8:57 where you got stuck is where i got stuck. and because of your sharing your revelation i finally make resend work on my website!! Thank you so much!! Intelligent and handsome life saver!!

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

Thank you! Glad I could help you out!

[@kenthefley2226]

Man Brett. You are putting out exactly the stuff I want to learn.

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

Thank you so much for supporting!

[@SHUBHAMPATEL-f6d]

Great work brett. You're efforts are clearly visible in your content. The skills how you explain, how you communicate are so great.

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

Thank you so much!

[@bernardstein1651]

I spent all day deciding between Resend and Postmark. The Resend free tier is a lot more generous, but Postmark seems more established. Another great video learning a lot from your series.

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

Thank you so much for tuning in!

[@bulletrain2137]

You're the man Brett! Loving your videos as they are extremely helpful and easy to follow.

[@aaronmacken]

I appreciate the tutorials, helping me learn next JS while I also grow my business! Cheers!

[@zlitegaming8397]

Bro this helps me a lot thank you keep uploading videos like this

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

No problem! Thanks for tuning in!

[@abdulkerimyalcn3911]

thank you brett. that was a clear and great video.

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ekchills6948]

Brett has it all!

[@John-eq5cd]

Thanks for the tutorial. I was wondering how the message is handled that the user types into the contact form.

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

No problem! Thank you for tuning in! Glad I was able to help you out! Any suggestions for more content?

[@andersbraathen1256]

Thanks man, great video!

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

You are welcome!

[@CO_IN_TECH]

Thank you Brett! That was a great video, I integrated this with my next.js app! 🥳

[@umanggoel5385]

what should I do if just want to implement this for a college project ? Like I dont have access to any domains

[@nomxxn]

This is probably asking for too much, how would you do it with payload cms, tried reading their docs but with no success

[@JustinNg26]

Does this work if I am trying to create a booking form that includes a date and time picker?

[@subhranshudas8862]

Pardon me, but for your Contact Form use case, shouldn't the from & to be reversed? Anyone should be able to send you an email. so you should take the "from" from the POST body where as the "to" is always fixed. Thanks!

[@therealsharat]

Exactly! I was confused for 10 mins straight, thinking if I was trippin or maybe I had a fault logic in my head in regards to how the Resend API works! Thanks for pointing this out :)

[@rogerstivencardonaarias]

Does this also work in NextJs 14 or only on 13 as NextJs14 doesn't use AppRouter or Pages folder?

[@rohithmohan8063]

Can you explain how to bind ui to the api in contact form

[@samuelvictoralexander8770]

please is it possible to use Resend if my website don't have a private domain name.

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

I don't think so because you have to register your domain through resend and verify DNS records.

[@vigneshwarvenugopal922]

what if we don't have any domain to work...???

[@KhaliiDev]

I need What can we add in our form like value or something else I'm beginner

[@eugeneiregi9169]

Hey Great Work Brett !!!..Now a question can you use vercel domain for resend to work or you have to get a domain

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

you can use it on localhost with their email as the sender [e-mail]. But you do need a domain and you get one free domain on the free plan.

[@youssefaskar5780]

could u make a video showing how to send emails with nodemailer in production with google?

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

Never have done this but I can give it a look

[@jearldev9684]

Hey Brett, is resend only available in certain countries? I've set everything up correctly, verified my domain successfully, but I'm getting an error message saying "The domain is not verified" even though it appears to be verified on the resend dashboard. I'm in South Africa and I set my region as North Virginia as it's all that was available, would this likely be the issue?

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

Not 100% I would contact their support team to verify.

[@sarenavrana2924]

I dont know, for me as begginer, i dont get it a lot of things. From where came the router.js now??

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

You mean the route.js?

[@sjonny-depp]

Maybe a nonsense question, but do I still need to use something like reCAPTCHA?

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

I don't think you need to

[@aryankathawale9269]

such a good video , subbed in a second , also wanted to ask you , do you really need a domain for resend to work??

[@muhammaduseram9405]

can we setup resend with localhost?

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

yes you can but use their test email to send it. Which is [e-mail]. Also, make sure to send it to your email that is associated with the email you signed up with on Resend

[@muhammaduseram9405]

@@brettwestwooddeveloper I want to send it to different email btw Thanks, and you look like a model😅

[@omerthebear]

Hey man! I had a particular question about setting this up and using Firebase hosting, running into a couple of problems. Went to your calendly link and it gave me a 404 error, I thought you'd want to know.

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

Thanks for letting me know that. I will see what I can do, but I never used Firebase hosting. What are the problems you are running into?

[@shadowa641]

Hello Brett! If you choose a domain region in America while being in the EU, you'll still be able to use your domain? Or the fees might vary based on the region you select? It appears that for the EU region, there's a $20 charge. However, the use of your domain shouldn't be affected by your geographical location, or so you should still be able to use it to send emails with your chosen domain? In that case, perhaps using SMTPJS is the best solution.

[@pablovaldes2397]

thank you so much man

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

No problem!

[@pulpml]

When are you sending the email to yourself ? Shouldn't u email the actual message the user typed in the form to yourself first before you send the emailer thank you ? email to & from logic doesn't seem right to me. The video is great but i think this doesn't represents a real world scenario or correct me if i'm wrong!

[@thayto_dev]

Resend is awesome!

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

Yes it is

[@jesustzinon]

Maybe we could have a next-auth password recover with Resend in the next video!

[@umanggoel5385]

how to work around the domain if i want to test it for a local setup ?

[@brettwestwooddeveloper]

They provide in the docs a test one you can use. You must use their test one
