How do Mailables and Markdown email templates work in Laravel?

❓ Interview Prompt: Explain Mailable classes (php artisan make:mail), envelope(), content(), queueing emails, and Markdown templates.

Mailables represent email messages as PHP classes in Laravel:

Key Components:

•
'envelope()': Sets subject line, from address, and reply-to headers.
•
'content()': Defines the Blade view or Markdown template ('view: "emails.orders.shipped"').
•
Sending: Execute 'Mail::to($user)->send(new OrderShipped($order))' or 'Mail::to($user)->queue(...)'.

Code Implementation Example

php
<?php
namespace AppMail;

use AppModelsOrder;
use IlluminateBusQueueable;
use IlluminateMailMailable;
use IlluminateMailMailablesContent;
use IlluminateMailMailablesEnvelope;

class OrderShipped extends Mailable
{
    use Queueable;

    public function __construct(public Order $order) {}

    public function envelope(): Envelope {
        return new Envelope(subject: "Order #{$this->order->id} Shipped");
    }

    public function content(): Content {
        return new Content(markdown: 'emails.orders.shipped');
    }
}
💡Mailable class using Markdown email template.
🎯 Interview Key Takeaway

Represent transactional emails as Mailable classes and queue them to prevent blocking web request cycles.
