Ink is a framework for responsive HTML emails that works with an Outlook first approach.
The people who brought us the Foundation framework are unveiling Ink, a tool designed to help you build HTML emails that work on mobile devices, in Outlook, in Gmail, and everywhere else.
It’s worth bearing in mind that a lot of people will be opening your email on a mobile device and if it doesn’t display correctly, as is frequently the case, most people won’t read it.
Ink uses an Outlook first process, which means that you build your email for Outlook then progressively enhance for other clients. The creators of Ink have gone to great lengths to make sure that whatever you produce will work in nearly every situation.
