Elegant by design

src/routes/index.rs

use rejoice::{Req, Res, html};

pub async fn page(req: Req, res: Res) -> Res {
    res.html(html! {
        h1 { "Hello, world!" }
        p { "Welcome to Rejoice." }
    })
}

src/routes/layout.rs

use rejoice::{Children, Req, Res, html, DOCTYPE};

pub async fn layout(req: Req, res: Res, children: Children) -> Res {
    res.html(html! {
        (DOCTYPE)
        html {
            head { title { "My App" } }
            body { (children) }
        }
    })
}
