The Inbox HTML5 Scaffold is a full-featured mail client built on top of the Inbox API. It is a client-side AngularJS application that leverages the Inbox Javascript SDK, and is intended to be a foundation for you to build your own mail client or add features that you've always wanted!

The Inbox HTML5 App Scaffold includes support for:

• Authenticating entirely client-side
• Browsing your Inbox, Drafts, and Archive
• Viewing threads
• Viewing and downloading message attachments
• Archiving threads
• Filtering threads
• Replying to threads with attachments
• Saving, editing, and sending drafts

Yes, it even has a dark theme:

The Inbox HTML5 Scaffold is intended for developers - to use it, you need an Inbox Developer Program membership or a copy of the open-source Inbox Sync Engine. When you download or fork the Inbox HTML5 Scaffold, you'll need to add your Inbox App ID before you can connect your account.

Already have an Inbox App ID? Try out the Inbox HTML5 Scaffold right now! It's purely client-side javascript, so we hosted it on Github Pages.

##Getting Started

git clone  --recursive [email protected]:inboxapp/inbox-scaffold-html5.git

cd inbox-scaffold-html5

git submodule init

git submodule update

sudo apt-get install node npm gulp bower

npm update

npm run-script postinstall

bower install

foreman start --port 6000

The Inbox HTML5 Scaffold is fairly simple and is intended to be a solid foundation. It's built to be easily hackable and extendable. You can fork it and build an entirely different email experience, or write an Angular directive that adds features and functionality you need.

In the future, we plan to:

• Wrap the HTML5 Scaffold in Atom-Shell and rewrite key Angular services to use an SQLite cache, offline action queue, and more.

• Clearly define integration points for you to create your own directives and services that extend the client.

• Refactor things for greater hackability.

We'd love for you to help us achieve these goals - check out the Contributing section for more information. If these things get you really excited, check out our Jobs page!
