88/365: SendGrid

 I want my review management app to capture reviews under 4 stars and email them as private feedback to the business. I looked into different email solution providers like MailGun but decided on SendGrid. Within SendGrid I verified my ownership of this jbuilds.dev domain by uploading three CMS records into the custom domains. From there I was able to write a little Node Script that referenced my API key and send an email to myself that looked like it came from @jbuilds.dev . In order to integrate this with my React app, I'll need to have an Express server listening for requests to send the emails with SendGrid. I'm looking at Glitch.com to host the Express server and possibly the React frontend too. Building this little app will be my first full stack project and a good opportunity to learn a lot.
