About:
Stencil is a modern, high-performance template engine designed for generating files across evolving code repositories. It uses a simple YAML configuration to define templates and variables, enabling consistent code generation and project scaffolding. The tool focuses on maintainability and ease of use for both individual developers and teams.
|
Key Features:
- Declarative YAML-based configuration for easy setup
- Powerful templating with support for loops, conditionals, and partials
- Designed for version control, allowing templates to evolve with projects
- Fast execution written in Rust for performance
- Flexible variable injection and data sourcing
|
Use Cases:
- Scaffolding new projects or microservices with consistent structure
- Generating boilerplate code, configuration files, or documentation
- Maintaining standardized project layouts across large organizations
|
Alternatives:
-
Cookiecutter
– Stencil is focused on ongoing project evolution, whereas Cookiecutter is primarily for initial project creation.
-
Hygen
– Hygen is tightly integrated with JavaScript ecosystems, while Stencil is a language-agnostic, standalone binary.
