Data available in templates

Preamble

In every template, VictorPy 0.1.32 provides you with a lot of data about:

The page
The site

This dataset is called the page context.

Every parameters you defined in a content page front matter is available in the page context.

For example, let say we have a content page my_page.md:

content/my_page.md

---
title: My page title
something: This is something!
---

Some **content** here…

In the template, you have an access to every parameter, so you can do:

templates/page.html

The title of this page is {{ title }}, and here is something: {{ something }}

{{ content }}

When rendering, you should get:

The title of this page is My page title, and here is something: This is something!

Some <strong>content</strong> here…
