Hi 👋, I'm Labeeb. I write backend deep-dives that help engineers build scalable systems.

Resend is a wrapper on top of Amazon SES. SPF records point to amazonses.com and email headers confirm it. They add a nicer dev-friendly API, React email components, templates, webhooks, and analytics. SES: $0.10 per 1k emails. Resend Pro: $20/mo for 50k emails (~$0.40 per 1k). ~4x the cost for convenience, not literally "just" SES but close. Markup is more like 300%.

@levelsio @Cloudflare Very nice stats. When setting up Resend, it actually gives me even the Amazon SES domains...



I've found UI programming to be very deep and interesting if you're doing it all from scratch (API design, layout, rendering, text handling, focus management, animation, input handling etc). Such a shame we condemned a generation of frontend devs to the browser black box.

Interesting article on treating agent output like compiler output (and why) skiplabs.io/blog/codegen_a…
