Selmer: A Django-Inspired Clojure Templating Engine



Key Features



* **Familiar Syntax:** If you're coming from a Django background, you'll feel right at home with Selmer's syntax. It uses tags like `{% if %}`, `{% for %}`, and `{{ variable }}` for control flow and variable interpolation.
* **Extensible:** Selmer allows you to create custom tags and filters, giving you the flexibility to tailor the templating engine to your specific needs.
* **Seamless Clojure Integration:** Selmer is designed to work seamlessly with Clojure's data structures and functions, making it easy to manipulate and render data within your templates.

Benefits



* **Rapid Development:** The familiar syntax and Clojure integration allow for faster template creation and modification.
* **Flexibility:** Custom tags and filters enable you to extend Selmer's functionality and create reusable template components.
* **Readability:** Selmer's clear syntax helps maintain template readability and understandability, even in complex projects.

Getting Started



1. **Add Dependency:** Include Selmer in your project's dependencies using your preferred build tool (e.g., `lein` or `deps.edn`).
2. **Create Templates:** Write your templates using Selmer's syntax, embedding Clojure expressions and filters as needed.
3. **Render Templates:** Use Selmer's functions to compile and render your templates, passing in the necessary data context.
