Hero is a fast Go template engine that pre-compiles HTML templates into Go code for high-performance rendering. It includes a CLI compiler with watch mode and supports template Extend and Include.

Use cases

  • compile html templates to go code
  • fast server-side html rendering in go
  • precompile templates for a go web app
  • auto-recompile templates when files change
  • use layouts and includes in go templates
  • minimize memory usage when rendering templates

When to choose

  • you need the fastest possible template rendering in Go
  • you want type-safe templates compiled to Go code
  • you prefer compile-time errors over runtime template errors

When to avoid

  • you need runtime-editable templates without recompilation
  • you use standard library html/template syntax and ecosystem
  • you need a template engine for a non-Go language
