php artisan make:mail TestMail

app/Mail/TestMail.php

<?php
  
namespace App\Mail;
  
use Illuminate\Bus\Queueable;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue;
use Illuminate\Mail\Mailable;
use Illuminate\Queue\SerializesModels;
  
class TestMail extends Mailable
{
    use Queueable, SerializesModels;
  
    public $details;
  
    /**
     * Create a new message instance.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function __construct($details)
    {
        $this->details = $details;
    }
  
    /**
     * Build the message.
     *
     * @return $this
     */
    public function build()
    {
        return $this->subject('Mail from MyWebtuts.com')
                    ->view('emails.TestMail',compact($details));
    }
}

?>

</head>
<body>
    <h1>{{ $details['title'] }}</h1>
    <p>{{ $details['body'] }}</p>
   
    <p>Thank you</p>
</body>
</html>

routes/web.php

Route::get('send-mail', function () {
   
    $details = [
        'title' => 'Mail from MyWebtuts.com',
        'body' => 'This is for testing email using smtp'
    ];
