pyfrontkit 1.0.49

A Python tool to generate HTML and CSS with programmable syntax.

PYFRONTKIT

A Pythonic DSL for Programmatic HTML & CSS Generation

PyFrontKit is a Python-based DSL designed to generate HTML and CSS programmatically, providing a clean, elegant, and highly readable syntax inspired by modern component-driven development.

It allows developers to build complete web pages using pure Python, without writing raw HTML manually.
Ideal for:

• rapid prototyping
• teaching HTML structure
• generating static sites
• automating documentation pages
• template-driven UI generation

---

🚀 Features

✔ Pythonic HTML Syntax

Create elements using class constructors or ID-based global functions:

Div(id="container")
container(Section(ctn_p="Hello World"))

✔ Accumulative DOM

Any element with an id="..." automatically generates a global callable:

header(Div(ctn_h1="Welcome"))

✔ Automatic CSS File Generation

All selectors (id, class, and tag names) are scanned and exported into style.css.

✔ Inline Style Support

Every tag accepts a native HTML5 style="..." attribute.

✔ Clean Separation Between Content & Structure

ctn_p, ctn_h1, ctn_div, etc. allow pythonic, newline-based content — internally converted to <p>, <br>, <h1>, etc.

✔ Ready-to-open Output

The library produces:

index.html
style.css

💡 Basic Usage Example

from pyfrontkit import HtmlDoc, Div, Section, Header, Nav, Ul, Li, Footer

doc = HtmlDoc(title="My Professional Page")

# Header
Header(id="header", ctn_p="Welcome to My Professional Site",
       style="background-color:#2c3e50; color:white; padding:20px 0;")

# Navigation
Nav(id="nav", style="background-color:#34495e; display:flex; justify-content:center;")
nav(
    Div(ctn_p="Home", style="color:white; padding:15px 25px;"),
    Div(ctn_p="Services", style="color:white; padding:15px 25px;")
)

# Introduction
Section(id="intro", style="padding:40px 20px; max-width:1000px; margin:auto;")
intro(
    Div(ctn_p="This is the introduction section, generated entirely in Python.")
)

# Footer
Footer(id="footer", style="background-color:#2c3e50; color:white; text-align:center; padding:20px 0;")
footer(
    Div(ctn_p="© 2025 My Professional Site. All rights reserved.")
)

# Build files
doc.create_document()

Output generated:

index.html
style.css

🎨 CSS Usage Guide

PyFrontKit automatically generates a style.css file containing all selectors found in the HTML:

Example auto-generated output:

#header {}
#nav {}
#intro {}
#footer {}
div {}
section {}

You can now fill these selectors manually:

#header {
    background:#2c3e50;
    color:white;
    padding:20px 0;
}

Styling methods

1. Inline Styles (fast prototyping)

Div(ctn_p="Hello", style="color:red; margin-top:10px;")

2. External CSS File (recommended)

Edit the generated style.css:

div {
    font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
}
