Building a Better HTML Templating Library

Temple is a new HTML templating library for Go that aims to provide an improved experience compared to the built-in HTML/template package. The motivation behind building Temple came from the frustration with the limitations and lack of features in the existing templating options available for Go. The goal of Temple is to make templating in Go more ergonomic and familiar, similar to languages like JSX or Razor views. The library offers features like auto completion, type safety, and better error handling to enhance the development experience. Temple also supports component-based design, allowing developers to reuse and share functionality across different projects.
