FAQ: Add entry about why sitting on top of a meta-framework, like next, is helpful #10

The docs could be improved to better explain why actually hosting your Brail project somewhere is important, given it will (likely) result in your images being hosted (e.g. on Vercel). It also lets us easily preview emails both in development and in production, perhaps so non-development colleagues can preview our email templates.

A related question: If my website is running on next.js, should I add brail to it, or rather have a separate project?

sinclairnick commented 1 year ago

Hey @0xsven that's completely up to you (either way works), and is largely a matter of preference. Personally, I like the emails to be somewhat separate from my frontend, so I have it in a separate monorepo app. On the other hand, if you're running a full-stack Next setup, keeping everything nicely in one project could be preferable.

Hope this helps
