mau 4.0.1

A lightweight template-driven markup language

Mau v4

Mau is a lightweight markup language heavily inspired by AsciiDoc, Asciidoctor and Markdown.

As I wasn't satisfied by the results I got with those tools I decided to try to write my own language and the tool to render it.

I am currently using Mau to render posts on my blog The Digital Cat and the online version of my book "Clean Architectures in Python". I also used it to transpile the code of the book to Markua, to be able to publish the book on Leanpub using their toolchain.

Quick start

To install Mau use pip

pip install mau

Then install at least one visitor plugin. You probably want to start with mau-html-visitor

pip install mau-html-visitor

To convert Mau sources into HTML just run

mau -i source.mau -o destination.html -f html

Check out Mau documentation for further information.

Pelican plugin

There is a Pelican plugin that enables you to use Mau in your blog. Check it at https://github.com/pelican-plugins/mau-reader.
