## [Slim](http://slim-lang.com/) templates syntax for Jinja2.
#### Installation
pip install slimish_jinja
Examples of using it as Jinja2 extension(jinja_demo.py), with Flask(flask_demo.py) and standalone`(convert.py and demo.py)` are bundled.
If you want to use it for any other purpose, the lexer - lexer.py and parser - parser.py are simple enough. lexer reads the input by lines and generates tokens. parser implements a hand rolled recursive descent parser.
