PostPilot is currently in alpha. While the core functionality is working, you may encounter bugs or missing features. Use in development environments only.
PostPilot is a developer tool inspired by Laravel Herd's mail panel, designed to simplify email testing during development. It provides a local SMTP server that captures outgoing emails and displays them in a modern, user-friendly interface.
- 📬 Local SMTP server for email testing
- 🎨 Modern, responsive UI built with React and Tailwind CSS
- 🌓 Light/Dark mode support
- 📱 Preview emails in different formats (HTML, Text, Raw)
- 🔍 Basic search capabilities
If you're on Linux or Windows you can go check out the releases page and download the binary for your platform. As I don't yet have a Windows signing certificate, Windows users will have to skip past the scary "This software may harm your computer" warning, or build from source using the below instructions.
Arch users can install PostPilot from the AUR:
yay -S postpilot-bin
Distro packaging is sparse right now, but you can help with that!
-
Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/watzon/postpilot.git
-
Install dependencies
make dep
-
Build the project
make build
The binary will be located in the build/bin
directory.
Development requires the Wails CLI, which you can install with:
go install github.com/wailsapp/wails/v3/cmd/wails@latest
Then run the following command to start the development server:
wails dev
