Building with Go Templates

Go’s html/template package is powerful for building static sites. Here’s what makes it great:

Template Features

• Safe by default - automatic HTML escaping
• Template inheritance - base layouts and blocks
• Custom functions - extend functionality
• Conditional logic - if/else statements
• Loops - range over collections

Example Template

{{range .Posts}}
<article>
    <h2>{{.Title}}</h2>
    <time>{{formatDate .Date}}</time>
    <p>{{truncate .Description 100}}</p>
</article>
{{end}}

This generator demonstrates these concepts in a practical way!
