Embedding Instagram photos into your emails
Note
CloseThis blog post is from 2019. Contents (and screenshots) may be a bit of out date, but we've kept it up out of posterity.

(I'm going to try really hard to not make some sort of doing it for the 'gram reference in this post.)

((Well, I guess I just upped and did it, huh?))

Okay. Just like how you can embed tweets or gists into your email by dropping in a URL, you can now do the same thing with Instagram!

You don't need to enable anything or connect anything. Just drop in a URL and, like everything (okay, most things) in Buttondown, it just works. (The best part is that it's all HTML and CSS — no Javascript! — meaning that it works great in every single email client, and you don't have to worry about lazy loading or fallbacks or noscript.)

Interested in embedding anything else easily? Let me know.
