  helpers: new Map([['greet', (_, name: string) => `Hi ${name}!`]]),
});

const output = render(`OUTPUT: {{ name | greet }}`, context);
// --> "OUTPUT: Hi scaffdog!"

Custom Tags

import { render, createContext } from '@scaffdog/engine';

const context = createContext({
  tags: ['<%=', '=%>'],
});

render(`<%= "custom tag" =%>`, context);
