libio is a C library that provides a Lua templating system.

This means it can parse template files with embedded Lua code.
For example, say you have a file hello.tpl:

    Hello, {{ string.lower(name) }}

In order to parse this file and produce the wanted output, you have to write
this little C program:

    #include <libio/io_template.h>
    #include <embody/embody.h>
    #include <sds.h>
    int main() {
        io_template_t *T = io_template_new(NULL);
        io_template_set_template_file("hello.tpl");
        io_template_param(T, "name", emb_new("sds", sdsnew("WORLD")));
        puts(io_template_render(T));
        io_template_free(T);
        return 0;
    }

That will produce the following output:

    Hello, world
