}HTML templates will include two functions from the start: dict and list.
dictgiven a list of key-value pairs, it will construct a mapmap[string]anyout of it.
Example:
{{$_ := dict "foo" "bar"}} => map[string]any{"foo": "bar"}
It's very usefull for passing named parameters to other templates, for example:
list: given a list of items, it will construct an slice[]anyout of it.
Example:
{{$_ := list "foo" "bar"}} => []any{"foo", "bar"}
