Templer

This collection of pages is designed to fully demonstrate how you'd use Templer, to generate a website.

A templer site is created by a collection of input files, and a layout file.

The general course of processing involves:

  • Reading each input page.
  • Expanding variables/content.
  • Inserting the rendered content into the layout.

A site itself then consists of a series of input pages (i.e. your content) and at least one layout. An input page might well decide to use a different layout which is just fine.
