This post is a thought. It's a short note that I make about someone else's content online. Learn more about the process thoughts

A feature of jinja that I just discovered is including sub templates. Here is an example from the docs.






        
{% include 'header.html' %}
Body goes here.
{% include 'footer.html' %}

And inside of my thoughts project I used it to render posts.






        
<ul id='posts'>
    {% for post in posts.__root__ %}
    {% include 'post_item.html' %}
    {% endfor %}
</ul>

note that post_item.html automatically inherits the post variable.
