Sending emails with Reactjs

Question

I am trying to use an API for sending emails with JavaScript, it's called SmptJs. The API works perfectly when integrated in a simple HTML file, but I don't know how to integrate it in a reactJs component !

Here is the api link and doc : https://smtpjs.com/

I tried it first in my HTML page, like this : code of html file

And it worked, I received the email. But I want to add the api inside my React Component, specifically when I click submit in my form but I got an error and I think it's not compatible with ReactJs syntax, here is the image :

Checkout the simple component with example here https://jsfiddle.net/92a68tmz/

You have to include the tag of smtpjs in your public/index.html or general index.html file in your project and you can use it like this

 sendMail() {
     window.Email.send({
        SecureToken : "C973D7AD-F097-4B95-91F4-40ABC5567812",
        To : 'them@website.com',
        From : "you@isp.com",
        Subject : "This is the subject",
        Body : "And this is the body"
    }).then(
  message => alert(message)
);

in your onSubmit you directly use this

     const onSubmit = data => {
              window.Email.send({
                    SecureToken : "C973D7AD-F097-4B95-91F4-40ABC5567812",
                    To : data.email,
                    From : "you@isp.com",
                    Subject : "This is the subject",
                    Body : "And this is the body" + data.firstname
                }).then(
                    message => alert(message)
      }

No need for a separate Emailer component.
