# smalldom / sdom ## What it is sdom or "small dom" is a dynamic markup language for creating files based on XML or HTML. ## How does it works ### step n°1 First you create a .sdom file in which you write your markup as shown below. For the exemple we gonna use the HTML document pattern. ``` html head { meta [charset="UTF-8"] } body { // Content here... } ``` ### step n°2 In a second time you just need to run the following command to compile your code. `sdom compile [folder|source.sdom] [folder|output.html] [--extension|--ext] [--layout|--ly] [--watch]` Arguments : - `[source.sdom]` the path to your source file (index.sdom by default) or folder - `[output.html]` the path to your output file (dist/index.html by default) or folder - `[--extension]` the extension of output files in case of output folder (html by default) - `[--layout]` the layout render of your html, you can custom it by using `[numberBreaks/numberSpaces]` notation (minified by default) - `[--watch]` the option to recompile everytime your .sdom file change - `[--help]` for help informations ### step n°3 Open your HTML file and you will see... ``` // Content here... ``` ### step n°4 Read the documentation to see all possibilities with sdom.
