use Illuminate\Queue\SerializesModels;
   
class MyDemoMail extends Mailable
{
    use Queueable, SerializesModels;
    public $details;
   
    /**
     * Create a new message instance.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function __construct($details)
    {
        $this->details = $details;
    }
   
    /**

     *
     * @return $this
     */
    public function build()
    {
        return $this->markdown('emails.myDemoMail')
                    ->with('details', $this->details);

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
  
use App\Http\Controllers\HomeController;
  
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Web Routes
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Here is where you can register web routes for your application. These
| routes are loaded by the RouteServiceProvider within a group which
| contains the "web" middleware group. Now create something great!
|
*/
  
Route::get('my-demo-mail', [HomeController::class, 'myDemoMail']);

namespace App\Http\Controllers;
  
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Mail\MyDemoMail;
use Mail;
   
class HomeController extends Controller
{
  
    /**
     * Show the application dashboard.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Contracts\Support\Renderable
     */
    public function myDemoMail()
    {
        $myEmail = 'aatmaninfotech@gmail.com';
   
        $details = [
            'title' => 'Mail Demo from rathorji.in',
            'url' => 'https://www.rathorji.in'
        ];
  
        Mail::to($myEmail)->send(new MyDemoMail($details));
   
        dd("Mail Send Successfully");
