mstch VS Wt

Here's what I did: - I bought a theme that I liked, and used mstch as template engine (matched the theme's template format) - Imported rapidjson for parsing JSON, and used mstch for generating JSON (the JSON I generate is simple enough that I can do this) - Wrote an HTTP handler class for each page that handles the GET and POST requests, generating HTML or JSON depending on the request

How does this compare to https://github.com/no1msd/mstch ? I see they both rely on c++11 and mstch is compliant with the lambda module . If this is the same P. Dimov who wrote the “simple c++11 meta programming” series of articles I can’t wait to check the code. On the other hand I appreciate the simplicity of mstch.

I like to use a template engine for rendering html. This way I could use my favourite html editor and add the information from c++ to it. There are some alternatives but I would recommend either mustache or inja. While I used mustache successfully in many projects inja has a more modern feel to it

You can generate an html page from scracth for sure, but you can also use a templating 'language' such as {{mustache}} which has a C++ implementation : https://github.com/no1msd/mstch

Take a look at Wt Webtoolkit. It can do exactly this (and a lot more) https://www.webtoolkit.eu/wt

How does this compare with WebToolkit?

How is this much different than wt [1] or compiling qt to emscripten? Sincere question.

Not posting to prove you wrong but simply because related.

> Wt is a web GUI library in modern C++. Quickly develop highly interactive web UIs with widgets, without having to write a single line of JavaScript. Wt handles all request handling and page rendering for you, so you can focus on functionality.
