Pure-HTML templating

HTML templating for the modern web

The HyperTexting templating system is called HyperTemplates. It's pure-HTML templating, powered by a simple set of ht-* HTML attributes.

 1<!DOCTYPE html>
 2<html lang='en-US'>
 3  <head>
 4    <meta ht-include='fragments/head'>
 5    <style ht-pipe='from "style.component" as css' id='components'></style>
 6    <style id='layout'>
 7      /* Layout styles go here */
 8    </style>
 9    <script ht-apply src='/js/components/auto-toc.js?v=${ build.id }' defer></script>
10  </head>
11  <body>
12    <header ht-include='fragments/header'></header>
13    <main>
14      <article ht-apply>
15        <header>
16          <small ht-apply>${ page.created_at }</small>
17          <h1 ht-apply>
18            ${ page.title }
19          </h1>
20          <p ht-apply>
21            ${ page.description }
22          </p>
23        </header>
24        ${ markdown(page.content, "") }
25      </article>
26      <aside ht-include='fragments/post-toc'></aside>
27    </main>
28    <footer ht-include='fragments/footer' class='site-footer'></footer>
