Reusable HTML5 Boilerplate code structure - El Forum - 04-08-2011

[eluser]BRK Network[/eluser]
Hi,

Background:

* I'll be using HTML5 Boilerplate for a new project.
* I want to use modular separation for front-end and back-end (HMVC, Modular CI, etc.)
* I'll be using DataMapper ORM.
* I'll be using a templating system (probably Phil's CI Template library].)

Goal:

I would like to be able to re-use the HTML5 Boilerplate goodness, like its index.html (structure) and .htaccess - through all pages of the projects both in front-end and back-end modules.

I mean, the same index.html structure should be kept in a single file and I should be able to use it while creating a page - whether it is a back-end page or front-page (with any of the page templates, not limited to default template.)

So, that may be a "master" template - which will be the basis of other templates.

Of course, there will be some "optional" items - like the Google Analytics snippet - which won't be needed at the back-end (admin) pages.

Reasoning:

Aside from the advantages of DRY approach; I would like to have a single instance of HTML5 Boilerplate's index.html structure, and re-use it at all pages of the project... and whenever there's a need for an update, just changing/updating a single file should do the trick.

Question:

What will be the best approach to achieve this goal? Which modularity and templating libraries would be the best match?

Thanks for your help!
