Intro:

We want for a user to receive an email when a new mentorship request is accepted. Find more information about the context on issue #265.

Prerequisite:

• Have a GitHub account
• Know how to use git
• Setup and run the project on your local development environment

Steps:

• Create a copy of the project into your account GitHub by forking systers/mentorship-backend project.

  • Hint: there's a feature already that allows the backend to send an email when a user needs to get the email verified. Here's app/api/email_utils.py where this send function is. Feel free to be creative with your solution.
