Foundation for Emails (previously known as Ink) is a framework for creating responsive HTML emails that work in any email client — even Outlook. Our HTML/CSS components have been tested across every major email client to ensure consistency. And with the [Inky](https://github.com/zurb/inky) templating language, writing HTML emails is now even easier.
## Getting Started
The main way to get started is with our [email template stack](https://github.com/zurb/foundation-emails-template). To use the stack, you'll need [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) installed on your machine.
To set up the emails template, run these commands:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/zurb/foundation-emails-template project
cd project
npm install
```
Then run `npm start` to run the project. A new browser window will open with a BrowserSync server showing the finished files.
Run `npm run build` to do a full email inlining process.
#### Using the Ruby gem
**foundation_emails** is a gem that enables you to use Foundation for Emails assets within a Rails project. To install in your app:
1. Add the following line to your Gemfile:
```ruby
gem 'foundation_emails'
```
2. Then execute:
```bash
bundle install
```
3. Import Foundation for Emails in your `application.scss`:
```scss
@import "foundation-emails";
```
## Documentation
**Check out our [Migration Guide](https://github.com/zurb/foundation-emails/blob/master/migration.md) for upgrading an existing template or for more in-depth code examples.**
Foundation for Emails 2.0 documentation and framework are on the `develop` branch and you can compile it on your own machine.
Run these commands to set up the documentation:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/zurb/foundation-emails.git
cd foundation-emails
```
Foundation for Emails 2.0 documentation is on the `develop` branch.
```bash
git fetch
git checkout develop
npm install
```
Then run `npm start` to compile the documentation. When it finishes, a new browser window will open pointing to a BrowserSync server displaying the documentation.
## Testing
Run `npm run test:visual` to compile the visual regression tests. All of the pages under `test/visual/pages` are compiled and inlined. From there, they can be uploaded to Litmus for testing.
## Inky
[Inky](https://github.com/zurb/inky) is our new templating language that converts simple HTML into the complex tables required for email layout.
The parser converts a set of custom HTML tags, expanding them out into full HTML syntax. Below is a list of every custom element.
### Grid
```html
<container>
<row>
<column small="12" large="4"></column>
<column small="12" large="8"></column>

</container>
```
### Block Grid
```html
<block-grid up="3">
