Comments
Looks very interesting to me! Massiles. |
Go ahead :) |
Cool, thanks guys! |
Hey there, @William-McGonagle @NeilChaudhari I want to discuss a little bit my email verification system design. I am gonna to narrow you the steps that a typical signup scenario will follow, but a short description first. Description: If the code is correct, then we will make the API call to our back end. Steps :
Pros & cons ->Pros
->Cons
Comments on the Cons Please let me know if something is wrong, and I would love to hear your comments and ideas on this! Thanks, |
Hey there, @William-McGonagle , @NeilChaudhari I've done some research about free APIs to use in order to create the client side based system for email verification. But, this can not be done with out revealing the API keys. So this can not be done without a trade off ! Suggestions
Cons
Well this are my thoughts for the moment, I would love to hear from you guys, to see what is the best design for this system. Thanks in advance. |
Hey everyone ! I've continued researching on the subject, and it turned out that the most relevant solution is the back end email verification system. Why ?

Hey Massiles,
I think that you can go ahead and implement the email system that you think
will work. It sounds great! The email account that we will be using is "
no-reply@fairfieldprogramming.org", and there is no password for that account because its a no-reply one. If you need an actually used email account, you can use "fairfieldprogramming@gmail.com" and if you need the password, just direct message me on slack. We're so grateful that you're helping us build an email system, and we cannot thank you enough!
Thank you for all your help,
~ Neil Chaudhari

Hey Neil, Thank you so much for the great support and feedback, I appreciate it ! Yeah, I've already enrolled in the implementation process, and for now I'am testing with my gmail account credentials. The system is almost done, I'am now able to send emails to user email addresses, and I can also handle the request for validating their email in our db when they actually click on the link that I've sent to them. So the first two tasks on this issue are done ! This is the status of my progression at the moment, hope that is clear Please refer to me if something is wrong ! Thanks again. |
Hey @MassiGy, I just checked out your pull and it looks awesome. The email fits our style perfectly, and I just pushed some small changes so now it should be working in production. I still have to run some tests, but I'll let you know how it goes. |
It works!!! Thank you so much for your help with this one @MassiGy! |
Hey @William-McGonagle, You are welcome, and thanks for the great feedback it is really nice ! Thanks again ! |
Idea
Users are a difficult part of programming because there are always bad users. Email verification stops users from creating spam accounts and it also lets us determine where groups of spam accounts may be. This is why we need a system for users to verify their emails.
