What is GTML?

GTML is a compiler which converts .html files into composable .go functions. Think of it like JSX for go.

Hello, World

Turn this:

<div _component="Greeting">
    <h1>Hello, $prop("name")</h1>
</div>

Into this:

func Greeting(name string) string {
    var builder strings.Builder
    builder.WriteString(`<div _component="Greeting" _id="0"><h1>Hello, `)
    builder.WriteString(name)
    builder.WriteString(`!</h1>`)
    return builder.String()
}
