The drag and drop part is not working for me, Firefox, macOS. I can click on the elements on the left and they will pop up, but I am not able to drag them onto the email.

although the name says 'drag and drop', it's not truly that. you click on any column in the designer and then select the component (heading, text, image, etc) in the left panel. you can then move components up and down using the arrows.

we found this approach simpler than drag and drop, especially when designing long emails.

let me know if drag and drop is something thats an absolute for you. we can bring it back.

UI-wise then I wonder if it would work better to have a "+" button inside each column, clicking that then gives a popover of available components right where you’re adding them.
