The template language itself has its code in one assembly, but then most of the functionality is actually in webpages, which is not open-source and hard to extend, and have a non-windows platform restriction in the license. It’s also causing a whole bunch of issues with the need to have custom build managers in some scenarios.

It actually is made of two things. First a compiler that transforms cshtml files to codedom classes, and then a viewengine runtime (which takes care of layouts partials and writing to the response stream). The latter is aspnet specific however you can customize the compiler to generate classes that would fit a custom view engine. I did a proof of concept a while back for using razor files and feed them to a monorail view engine (aspview) and it was surprisingly easy. . There is also a project that uses razor syntax to create class templates (like t4) On 4 באוק 2011, at 19:21, hammett <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: git pull [email protected]:castleproject/Castle.MonoRail3.git<mailto:[email protected]:castleproject/Castle.MonoRail3.git> And go to /src/Castle.Blade On Tue, Oct 4, 2011 at 9:13 AM, Mike Murray <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: In talking with the Nancy Framework guys and Sebastien Lambla of OpenRasta, it is a nightmare to try and support the Razor view engine on any open source web framework because of its tight coupling to ASP.NET<http://ASP.NET>. It's becoming clear you can't just rip it out and use it elsewhere (thanks Microsoft). In the FubuMVC project, we have stonewalled anyone asking for Razor support. We would like to support the syntax, as many interested in using the framework are asking for it and we know it would increase adoption because transitioning would be easier for most teams/companies if it were supported. Somebody mentioned Blade, and so here I am inquiring more. :) The promise of Blade sounds enticing, 100% compatibility with Razor, some extra nice syntax additions, and that the quality of the codebase has got to be in better shape than what is coming from MS. What is the current state of Blade? Is Blade available as a standalone download separate from MonoRail? Is it ready to be utilized in another web framework? Anything else I should know before embarking? The vision I have is for a user to be able to download FubuMVC (from something like NuGet) and also go download Blade and have them work together seamlessly because of a FubuMVC adapter for Blade that lets it work as one of many possible view engines for FubuMVC.
