j2html Documentation

You can generate typesafe HTML by importing j2html.TagCreator.* statically. Use the tag methods (like body, h1, img) to compose your HTML structure. For elements that require attributes, use the .with[AttributeName]() pattern. Finally, call .render() to produce the HTML string.

import static j2html.TagCreator.*;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        body(
            h1("Hello, World!"),
            img().withSrc("/img/hello.png")
        ).render();
    }
}

To deploy the website, you must update the static files located in the j2html/docs directory. You can do this by manually downloading the files from your local running instance or by using curl to save the output of specific URLs to their respective filenames.

curl "http://localhost:8888/" > index.html
curl "http://localhost:8888/download.html" > download.html
curl "http://localhost:8888/examples.html" > examples.html
curl "http://localhost:8888/news.html" > news.html
curl "http://localhost:8888/404.html" > 404.html
