doido-view 0.0.4

Default Tera engine, layouts, partials — Action View style templating for Doido.
Documentation
//! Process-global template engine, installed once at boot and reached from
//! request handlers via `Context::render`.
//!
//! Mirrors the framework's other boot-time singletons (the DB pool, inflections):
//! the application installs an engine with [`init`]/[`set_engine`] and controllers
//! render through [`render`] without threading the engine through every call.
