Templates
Templates are written in Jinja2. You can use any Jinja2 syntax in your templates.
Variables
The site variable is available in all templates and contains information about the site current site, such as the url and the title.
The pages variable is also available and contains a map of tags and the pages that have those tags.
For example, pages.tags.articles would give you a list of all pages that have the articles tag.
The context variable contains the context set in config.yaml.
Functions
The url function is available in all templates and can be used to generate URLs for pages. For example, {% url "test.md" %} would give you the URL for the page generated from test.md.
The static function is also available and can be used to generate URLs for static files. For example, {% static "style.css" %} would give you the URL for the style.css file in the static directory.
