Crate quillmark_core 

Quillmark Core Overview

Core types and functionality for the Quillmark template-first Markdown rendering system.

Features

This crate provides the foundational types and traits for Quillmark:

• Parsing: YAML frontmatter extraction with Extended YAML Metadata Standard support
• Templating: MiniJinja-based template composition with stable filter API
• Template model: Quill type for managing template bundles with in-memory file system
• Backend trait: Extensible interface for implementing output format backends
• Error handling: Structured diagnostics with source location tracking
• Utilities: TOML⇄YAML conversion helpers

Quick Start

use quillmark_core::{decompose, Quill};

// Parse markdown with frontmatter
let markdown = "---\ntitle: Example\n---\n\n# Content";
let doc = decompose(markdown).unwrap();

// Load a quill template
let quill = Quill::from_path("path/to/quill").unwrap();

Architecture

The crate is organized into modules:

• parse: Markdown parsing with YAML frontmatter support
• templating: Template composition using MiniJinja
• backend: Backend trait for output format implementations
• error: Structured error handling and diagnostics
• types: Core rendering types (OutputFormat, Artifact, RenderOptions)
• quill: Quill template bundle and related types
