Continuing from the last post, I also feel the same (ish) way about literally anything. I've even applied this to Gemini as I just can't bear writing excess boilerplate. From this issue, I have created Gemini Template Machine. It is incredibly basic so far but it can build a Gemini template using Jinja2 with no other notable features at the moment. Feel free to raise issues about whatever you would want in it however!

I'd love to hear your feedback!

@amadaluzia os.mkdir in your build.py only works if the parent folder already exists.

I recommend using os.makedirs instead, which recursively creates the folder structure.

with ignore_errors=True, it also doesn't complain if the folder already exists.

@sesenion Looking at the docs now, though a bit pedantic, the most similar parameter to os.makedirs is exist_ok. It does essentially as you said. Good catch by the way! I'll get to it when I can.

@amadaluzia Right, the ignore_errors is with shutil.rmtree then. I frequently use both one after the other. Btw. pathlib also supports building recursive paths. There is a flag to create parents in Path.mkdir()
