!!Web site for Taikai Germany

Web site? Let's face it: I'm not really good at web design.

But I wrote a super simple '''template engine''', that I'll generalize and make available here.


!!!Purpose

The purpose of this template engine is to create a set of ''static'' web pages. This is to reduce the overhead of having to deal with a DB server.


!!!Functionality

Functionality so far:
* Read in a CSV data file.
* Read in a text file and replace place holders.
* Place holders look like that: [@ @@MYVARNAME@@ @].
* Link between CSV field and variable is hard coded (quick and dirty, I know).

Functionality planned/wished for:
* Support XML data files.
* Support SQLite DB engine.
* Derive variable names from the (XML or DB) data structure.


!!!Trivia

* Written in [[Python]]
* Using [[Mercurial]] as a (D)VCS.
