Brace Tags
Static site generator with two template tags, include and is, for reusing HTML partials across the pages of a site.
Brace Tags is a static site generator written in Python with an own template language of two tags, include and is. include inserts a partial file into a page, and is changes the content of a partial depending on the page being generated, which is useful for marking the current item in a navigation. tags build writes the site to a _site folder that can be deployed to any static site host, and tags serve starts a local server for testing. Custom tags can be added as Python functions. The README describes installation with easy_install.
Worth knowing
The latest PyPI release is more than four years old, so the register hides this record. The project’s former site, tags.brace.io, no longer shows the software.
