:dog2: I accidentally built an HTML templating engine in Julia. It looked a lot
like [Pug](https://pugjs.org), but I like working dogs better, so I named it
Kelpie.
## Installation
You can install straight from the [Julia REPL]. Press `]` to enter [pkg mode],
then:
```julia
add Kelpie
```
## Usage
Most HTML elements[^1] now have functions of the same name: simply pass the contents
as a positional argument, and attributes as keyword arguments, and everything
will be returned as an [EzXML](https://github.com/JuliaIO/EzXML.jl) Document or
Node.
```julia
import EzXML: prettyprint
doc = html(
head(
title("Kelpie.jl is awesome!"),
),
body(
header(
h1("Dogs are cool"),
h2("Julia is cool"),
),
main(
img(;
src="/kelpie-on-sheep-back.jpg",
alt="A Kelpie herding sheep"
),
[
p("Kelpies make great herding dogs for $animal.")
for animal in ["cows", "sheep", "chickens"]
]...,
),
),
)
prettyprint(doc)
```
Turns into
```html
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<!DOCTYPE html SYSTEM "about:legacy-compat">
<html>
<head>
<title>Kelpie.jl is awesome!</title>
</head>
<body>
<header>
<h1>Dogs are cool</h1>
<h2>Julia is cool</h2>
</header>
<main>
<img src="/kelpie-on-sheep-back.jpg" alt="A Kelpie herding sheep" />
<p>Kelpies make great herding dogs for cows.</p>
<p>Kelpies make great herding dogs for sheep.</p>
<p>Kelpies make great herding dogs for chickens.</p>
</main>
</body>
</html>
```
Everything is pure Julia, so your imagination is the limit!

Exception: `div` is the division function, and I wanted to leave it that
way. To make `<div>`s, you need to use `html_div`.
