why did anyone think "hey html is cool but what if we made it really cryptic and also add ruby to it"
@trwnh I'm not sure about the specifics I just find haml really hard to read
the fact that one can just omit brackets doesn't help
@noiob haml might not be worth the effort, tbh. erb is uglier, easier to learn, and had much better error messages last time I compared them.
@jamesgecko I haven't got much of a choice if I wanna modify Mastodon code, sadly. I'm trying to keep the learning to a minimum though
maybe I'm fundamentally misunderstanding haml but honestly I'd just like to make it do what i want
