lmao a / in a path is an illegal character in the template unless surounded by quotes

gin templating got me fucked up how hard can it be to load a partial from a subdirectory

actually.... it's that the whole template directory reading thing breaks on encountering a directory, how shit is this implementation

YIKES I knew the single . included in *some* of the template inclusion examples was important

because that passes the arguments to the included template

this syntax is fucking ridiculous

there's literally no way they could've made this more obtuse

@f0x you can also call go functions from within templates iirc, mental :')

@f0x having fun? :P

@dumpsterqueer yeaaa

@f0x I also had a horrible time with the template just trying to write something very simple, so trying to do something more complex than just filling in a few variables? Oof

@dumpsterqueer oh I am *absolutely* not going to do anything more than variable filling here haha

@f0x don't fancy passing functions into your template? :P

@dumpsterqueer nope nope nope

@f0x I'll try it one day and get back to you :') it looks horrid and I delight in the grotesque

@f0x Yeah, if it’s not using or moving toward a modern React (-style) page build system, it’s not a project I’m willing to put any time into
