Someone did upload a blank MJML theme but that file no longer exist. I create a blank MJML theme which I used on my Mautic and several asked me about it. Here the link to it. Just install it like any other normal Mautic theme via the Mautic theme configuration menu. [https://stlaware.com/blank-mjml.zip](https://stlaware.com/blank-mjml.zip) Basically, it only contain this code in it since it a blank MJML and I use it to either built a new theme from it or to copy and paste the MJML code from my Desktop app to the GrapesJS code box in blank MJML theme. ```auto ``` ---

To answer some of the PM questions, I use two different Desktop app. One is not really a Desktop app but can be install and run from the Desktop. Just download and install mjml desktop app - [MJML App - The desktop app for MJML](https://mjmlio.github.io/mjml-app/) For this one, you need to have Node [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) installed to use it on your Desktop but you will need to code in a way to save your designs on Desktop or use it to copy and paste mjml from code box into Mautic mjml code box. GrapesJS MJML - [GitHub - artf/grapesjs-mjml: Newsletter Builder with MJML components in GrapesJS](https://github.com/artf/grapesjs-mjml) ---

Thank you. This should be included in the default installation. I didn’t understand that Mautic came with two different ways of creating emails before, (HTML/MJML) and this caused all kinds of confusion. ---

Hi, The email builder is a work in progress. Since many people use the old one, you can’t just pull it and force people to move to the new one. Joey ---

I understand, I’m not aware of the history here with Mautic. I recently started using it and I’m more than satisfied. It was just these small inconveniences here and there where it’s easy to fall into the trap of being a new user. I was first thinking of contributing a blank MJML template but then found this, maybe I should read the docs more clearly. Though, I’d imagine it would be possible to include “Blank (HTML)” and “Blank(MJML)” in the templates from a fresh install. ---

Sure, you are right: it should work without a history lesson 🙂 It is work in progress.
