DuckAlias Sender

DuckAlias Sender is a simple web application that allows users to generate DuckDuckGo email aliases and send emails through them. This app is built using React, Chakra UI, and localStorage to provide a smooth user experience. The app also supports dark mode.

Features

• Alias Generation: Enter your DuckDuckGo email and the recipient's email to generate a masked alias.
• Clipboard Copy: Copy the generated alias to the clipboard with a single click.
• Responsive Design: Fully responsive and works well on both mobile and desktop.
• Dark Mode Support: Automatic adaptation based on the user's system color mode.
• Local Storage: Input values are saved locally, so you don't lose them when refreshing the page.
