Show HN: Stamp turns a folder into a plain text file and a file into a folder
Oh, this looks similar to my "motllo" project, [1] (and so many other projects, mine wasn't the first either). I have variable substitution, but no additional logic. For me the point was having a "readable" representation of the template.

Show HN: gq – like jq or zq, but you use Go
this tool may interest the same audience: https://github.com/hairyhenderson/gomplate
I find it especially handy for poc-ing helm snippets, although regrettably they don't have the same "standard library" of functions

Building Rich CLI Applications with Go's Built-in Templating
I'm surprised nobody mentioned https://gomplate.ca/ yet. It's a great CLI tool built on top of Go's built-in templating with many features, including one template to many outputs using a separate data source. See this blog post from the author: https://blog.hairyhenderson.ca/post/one\_template\_many\_outputs/

Show HN: Stamp turns a folder into a plain text file and a file into a folder
Cookiecutter is nice but it requires an entire python install to run, which is a big thing to ask for some of the scenarios mentioned by the tool creator (like someone going through a simple learning tutorial which might not even be using python at all).
IMHO gomplate is a nicer alternative that's just a single static go-based tool that can do everything cookiecutter does and a lot more: https://github.com/hairyhenderson/gomplate
