I'm writing some email templates and require both plaintext and html versions.

Using templ for the html is wonderful 🥰

but I have to use the Go stdlib template for the plaintext which is... well it's not templ.

Any chance this could be supported? or a hacky way to make it work?

I do like the idea of plain text, since it might be useful for building complex terminal apps.

Thanks for your responses! The comment you linked looks like it'll do the trick!

I think there could be a lot of opportunity with plain text support. It'd be pretty cool if templ could work with some of the charm libraries.

That said, I also respect the "do one thing super well" aspect:

Enable Go developers to build strongly typed, component-based HTML user interfaces with first-class developer tooling, and a short learning curve.
