Inja is a header-only template engine for modern C++, loosely inspired by Python's Jinja. It renders text templates with variables, loops, conditions, includes, and callbacks using nlohmann/json as its data source.

Use cases

  • render jinja-style templates in C++
  • generate HTML or text from JSON data in C++
  • embed a lightweight template engine in a C++ application
  • generate code or config files from templates
  • string templating without heavy dependencies

When to choose

  • you need a Jinja-like template engine in C++
  • you want a header-only library with a single JSON dependency
  • you need variables, loops, conditions, and includes in text templates

When to avoid

  • you need full Jinja2 compatibility or Python ecosystem features
  • you need web-server-side rendering with async or streaming
  • your project is not C++ or cannot use nlohmann/json
