    git clone https://github.com/gofiber/recipes.git
    cd recipes/template

  2. Install dependencies:

    npm install

Usage​

Building Assets​

  1. Build the assets:

  2. Watch assets for changes:

    npm run dev

Running the Application​

  1. Start the Fiber application: 
    go run main.go

Example​

Here is an example of how to set up a basic route with template rendering in Go:

package main

import (
    "github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2"
    "github.com/gofiber/template/html/v2"
)

func main() {
    // Initialize the template engine
    engine := html.New("./views", ".html")

    // Create a new Fiber instance with the template engine
    app := fiber.New(fiber.Config{
        Views: engine,
    })

    // Define a route
    app.Get("/", func(c *fiber.Ctx) error {
        return c.Render("index", fiber.Map{
            "Title": "Hello, World!",
        })
    })

    // Start the server
    app.Listen(":3000")
}
