Shortcodes

See original GitHub issue

I’m wondering how shortcodes might be handled. I really like how Hugo uses shortcodes (https://gohugo.io/content-management/shortcodes/) but they would be even better if they could be run through node scripts (Hugo is written in Golang and has no support for this currently).

Essentially, I’d expect to be able to write little snippets that take arguments, referencing a script that outputs markup and injects it back as part of the processed template. E.g.

{{shortcodeName arg1="foo" arg2="bar"}}

would run a script called shortcodeName.js that takes “foo” and “bar” then exports/returns markup with those values processed somehow.

Also considering something more future-compatible with some form of (no JS at runtime) web components. I think it’s very important to maintain a 0-JS output by default here. I don’t want this to turn into a JS framework.
