Overview

TinyTiny is a versatile and framework-agnostic markup builder that's particularly designed for developers who want to generate HTML markup seamlessly using Ruby objects. Drawing inspiration from Erector and Markaby, TinyTiny adopts a minimalist approach, focusing on evaluating content in its original context. This means developers don’t have to worry about the complications of instance variables, enabling a cleaner and more straightforward coding experience.

Beyond just HTML generation, TinyTiny serves as a tiny framework for defining view helpers compatible with various Ruby frameworks like Rails and Sinatra. Its user-friendly mixin allows for inline building of HTML markup, leveraging Ruby's object-oriented features such as inheritance and encapsulation. With extensive documentation available, TinyTiny caters to both novice and experienced developers aiming for efficient template design.

Features
