I am going to show you example of laravel 9 send markdown email. it's simple example of laravel 9 mail send markdown. you can understand a concept of laravel 9 send mail using markdown.

Laravel Markdown provides components, tables, email link, button, embed image etc. Markdown beautiful layout you can use with email template.

In this Article, i am going to tell you how to send simple email with gmail smtp configuration using laravel 9 mailable class. It is very simple and best way.

Here i will give you full example for laravel 9 send email using markdown example. So let's see the bellow example :

Let us begin the tutorial by installing a new laravel application. if you have already created the project, then skip following step.

composer create-project laravel/laravel example-app

In first step, We have to add your gmail smtp configuration like your username, password etc, so open your .env file and add your configration.

MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=smtp.gmail.com
MAIL_PORT=587
MAIL_USERNAME=your email
MAIL_PASSWORD=your password
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=tls

In this step, You have to create new mailable class that way we can use simply like laravel 9 event, you can re-use anywhere in your laravel 9 application. So first create Mailable class using artisan command, so run bellow command:

php artisan make:mail MyDemoMail --markdown=emails.myDemoMail

Now you can see new file in your app(app/Mail/MyDemoMail.php) folder. So, open that file and put bellow code.

<?php

namespace App\Mail;

use Illuminate\Bus\Queueable;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue;
use Illuminate\Mail\Mailable;
use Illuminate\Queue\SerializesModels;

class MyDemoMail 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->markdown('emails.myDemoMail')
                    ->with('details', $this->details);
    }
}

In this step, we will add new route for out testing mail so open your web route file and add bellow route.

<?php

use App\Http\Controllers\HomeController;

/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Web Routes
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Here is where you can register web routes for your application. These
| routes are loaded by the RouteServiceProvider within a group which
| contains the "web" middleware group. Now create something great!
|
*/

Route::get('my-demo-mail', [HomeController::class, 'myDemoMail']);

php artisan make:controller HomeController

Now, we will add myDemoMail() in "HomeController" Controller file, in this file we will write code of mail send, so if you haven't created HomeController then create HomeController.php file and put bellow code.

In $myEmail variable, you can set your own email for testing mail.

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Mail\MyDemoMail;
use Mail;

class HomeController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * Show the application dashboard.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Contracts\Support\Renderable
     */

    public function myDemoMail()
    {
        $myEmail = 'abc@abc.com';

        $details = [
            'title' => 'Mail Demo from Mywebtuts.com',
            'url' => 'https://www.Mywebtuts.com'
        ];

        Mail::to($myEmail)->send(new MyDemoMail($details));

        dd("Mail Send Successfully");
    }
}

In last step, we will create email template file, so first create "emails" folder in your resources folder and create myDemoMail.blade.php file and put bellow code.

@component('mail::message')
# {{ $details['title'] }}
The body of your message. 

@component('mail::button', ['url' => $details['url']])
Button Text
@endcomponent

Thanks,

{{ config('app.name') }}
@endcomponent

php artisan serve

Now, you have to open web browser, type the given URL and view the app output:
