By hand (preferer):

git clone git@github.com:new-fantastic/vsf-sendgrid-newsletter.git src/modules

Or:

If you use multistore add to each storeView in the config inside i18n 3 letter abbrevation, e.g. for Germany:

"i18n": {
  "abbreviation": "DEU",
  "fullCountryName": "Germany",
  "fullLanguageName": "German",
  "defaultCountry": "DE",
  "defaultLanguage": "DE",
  "defaultLocale": "de-DE"
}

If you have single store add abrevation just to the main i18n inside config, e.g.:

"i18n": {
  "abbreviation": "USA",
  "defaultCountry": "US",
  "defaultLanguage": "EN",
  "availableLocale": ["en-US","de-DE","fr-FR","es-ES","nl-NL", "jp-JP", "ru-RU", "it-IT", "pt-BR", "pl-PL", "cs-CZ"],
  "defaultLocale": "en-US",
  "currencyCode": "USD",
  "currencySign": "$",
  "priceFormat": "{sign}{amount}",
  "dateFormat": "HH:mm D/M/YYYY",
  "fullCountryName": "United States",
  "fullLanguageName": "English",
  "bundleAllStoreviewLanguages": true
}

If you use Magento2, you could enable saving Newsletter Subscriptions to M2 also, by setting as true:

"sendgrid": {
  "addToMagentoList": true
}

"registeredExtensions": [
  "mailchimp-subscribe",
  "example-magento-api",
  "cms-data",
  "mail-service",
  "example-processor",
  "elastic-stock",
  "braintree",
  "sendgrid-newsletter"
]

"sendgrid": {
  "key": "<YOUR_KEY_HERE>"
}

Components / Mixins

Subscribe.ts

Path to import: src/modules/vsf-sendgrid-newsletter/components/Subscribe.ts

It creates data field for email with the Vuelidate validator for it.
It also provides method:

sendgridSubscribe(list?: string)

We can specify list if we want to add to the specific list. Otherwise user would be added to All contacts.

If user is authenticated, method does not require email from him. It will be taken from his profile. Otherwise, he/she has to provide it.

And computed:

sendgridSubscriptions(): Subscribed
