- All navigation links use [boost](https://htmx.org/docs/#boosting) which dynamically replaces the page content with an AJAX request, providing a SPA-like experience.
- All forms use either [boost](https://htmx.org/docs/#boosting) or [hx-post](https://htmx.org/docs/#triggers) to submit via AJAX.
- The mock search autocomplete modal uses [hx-get](https://htmx.org/docs/#targets) to fetch search results from the server via AJAX and update the UI.
- The mock posts on the homepage/dashboard use [hx-get](https://htmx.org/docs/#targets) to fetch and page posts vi AJAX.

All of this can be easily accomplished without writing any JavaScript at all.

The _template renderer_ is a _Service_ on the `Container` that aims to make template parsing and rendering easy and flexible. It is the mechanism that allows the `Page` to do [automatic template parsing](#automatic-template-parsing). The standard `html/template` is still the engine used behind the scenes. The code can be found in `services/template_renderer.go`.
While there are several methods available, the following is the primary one used:
Here is an example of a complex rendering that uses multiple template files as well as an entire directory of template files:
`ParseAndExecute(cacheGroup, cacheID, baseName string, files []string, directories []string, data interface{})`
```go
buf, err = c.TemplateRenderer.
Parse().
Group("page").
Key("home").
Base("main").
Files("layouts/main", "pages/home").
Directories("components").
Execute(data)
```
This will do the following:
- [Cache](#caching) the parsed template with a _group_ of `page` and _key_ of `home` so this parse only happens once
- Set the _base template file_ as `main`
- Include the templates `templates/layout/main.gohtml` and `templates/pages/home.gohtml`
- Include all templates located within the directory `templates/components`
- Include the [funcmap](#funcmap)
- Execute the parsed template with `data` being passed in to the templates
Using the example from the [page rendering](#rendering-the-page), this is what the `Controller` will execute:
```go
buf, err = c.TemplateRenderer.ParseAndExecute(
"page",
page.Name,
page.Layout,
[]string{
buf, err = c.Container.TemplateRenderer.
Parse().
Group("page").
Key(page.Name).
Base(page.Layout).
Files(
fmt.Sprintf("layouts/%s", page.Layout),
fmt.Sprintf("pages/%s", page.Name),
},
[]string{"components"},
page,
)
).
Directories("components").
Execute(page)
```
The parameters represent:
- `cacheGroup`: The _group_ to cache the parsed templates in
- `cacheID`: The _ID_ of the cache within the _group_
- `baseName`: The name of the base template, excluding the extension
- `files`: A list of individual template files to include, excluding the extension and template directory
- `directories`: A list of directories to include all templates contained
- `data`: The data object to send to the templates
If you have a need to _separately_ parse and cache the templates then later execute, you can separate the operations:
All templates will be parsed with the [funcap](#funcmap).
```go
_, err := c.TemplateRenderer.
Parse().
Group("my-group").
Key("my-key").
Base("auth").
Files("layouts/auth", "pages/login").
Directories("components").
Store()
```
```go
tpl, err := c.TemplateRenderer.Load("my-group", "my-key")
buf, err := tpl.Execute(data)
```

An email client was added as a _Service_ to the `Container` but it is just a skeleton without any actual email-sending functionality. The reason is because there are a lot of ways to send email and most prefer using a SaaS solution for that. That makes it difficult to provide a generic solution that will work for most applications.
The structure in the client (`MailClient`) makes composing emails very easy and you have the option to construct the body using either a simple string or with a template by leveraging the [template renderer](#template-renderer). The standard library can be used if you wish to send email via SMTP and most SaaS providers have a Go package that can be used if you choose to go that direction. **You must** finish the implementation of `mail.Send`.

The _from_ address will default to the configuration value at `Config.Mail.FromAddress`. This can be overridden per-email by calling `From()` on the email and passing in the desired address.
