Antwerp

An open-source framework for building static websites, it was ported from Node.js & Pug to Rust & Tera and is available on crates.io as Antwerp.

Description

 

Antwerp is an open-source framework ported from JavaScript to Rust for GitHub pages and built with the Marcus HTML to MarkDown parser. It outputs static web pages in dist/ using HTML and MarkDown templates in public/, which are converted to HTML using the Marcus MarkDown to HTML parser.
