Not only does it have the same syntax (with some improvements), but it also gives me the CSS to work with. AND I don't have to install python. Hooray.
- showell 17y agoYou don't technically need to install python to use SHPAML. You can try it online: http://shpaml.webfactional.com/tutorial/7 http://shpaml.webfactional.com/tutorial/7 SHPAML is mostly targeted at Python users for now. If you are not using Python, but you like the idea of having a syntax layer on top of HTML, then you should consider other solutions like the markup generator or haml.
- jmonegro 17y agoStill, the markup generator gives you CSS markup as well.
- showell 17y agoAh, that is indeed a nice feature. When I first looked at haml, I was all about the indentation (being from Python) and rather skeptical of the CSS sugar. But once I ported the CSS sugar to SHPAML, I found I started writing better markup. I haven't bothered to automate any CSS generation from SHPAML, not because I don't think it would be a useful feature, but because I have a lot less experience with CSS to know what the pain points are. (I have pain points with CSS, but they are either just due to my own ignorance or problems not easily solved.)
