rustapi-view: The Artist

Lens: "The Artist" Philosophy: "Server-side rendering with modern tools."

Tera Integration

We use Tera, a Jinja2-like template engine, for rendering HTML on the server.

async fn home(
    State(templates): State<Templates>
) -> View {
    let mut ctx = Context::new();
    ctx.insert("user", "Alice");
    
    View::new("home.html", ctx)
}

Layouts and Inheritance

Tera supports template inheritance, allowing you to define a base layout (base.html) and extend it in child templates (index.html), keeping your frontend DRY.
