@mgeisler was this package never published? I don't see it in crates.

Hi @renepanke, sorry about the confusion — the crate has not been published yet and the README was updated too soon.

Right now, you'll have to clone this repository and install it with

cargo install --path mdbook-tera-backend

The plan was to publish it after we polish it a bit and make it work with Comprehensive Rust. @renepanke, I believe the backend can be used already and it would actually be useful to get your feedback on it.

Cc @sakex who worked on it last.

Well then, at least i didn't do something wrong.. I don't know if i get to test it in time since i use this in a work group at work where i do have limited time to work on stuff like this.

I'd propose to have this issue as long open as it isn't published on crates.io to have it documented here :)

[hoijui]

This is still an issue;. could it be published now?

@mgeisler do you need any help to finalize mdbook-tera-backend to have it releaes to crates.io?
