Intro
A standalone PHP microservice that handles transactional email delivery for static websites — secure, lightweight, and ready to deploy.
Overview
A secure PHP microservice to handle contact form submissions for static and JAMstack websites.
My Role
Backend Developer
Impact
Eliminated client-side SMTP exposure with a clean, deployable backend solution.
Design & Architecture
The Challenge
Static sites and JAMstack projects have no built-in server to process contact forms. Exposing SMTP credentials on the client side is a critical security risk that needed a clean backend solution.
The Solution
Engineered a self-contained PHP 8 API with strict input sanitization, configurable CORS policies, and PHPMailer integration — deployable on shared hosting.
Key Features
- Transactional email endpoint
- Input validation and sanitization
- Configurable CORS policies
- PHPMailer integration
