Engine or Gem

[Bob]

I recently built an error message setup into an existing app. I would
like to make it into an engine or a gem. Thing is that I dont really
know which I need.

I want it to be set up so that it can generate a controller, mailer,
and mailer view.

It seems that this would be the case for an engine but I am not sure.
For example, Devise is classed as an engine but it is installed as a
gem.

Could somebody clear this up for me please?

Thanks,
BR

Bob, 

  You want an engine. Engines can contribute to the host app MVC stack and are distributed as gems. So, yes and yes!
