This is something that I'd be interested in for another use case: I'd like to use the same template engine for static and dynamic parts of a web site. While the dynamic parts are fine to be statically compiled into a new binary, static parts should just be able to be generated by running a cmd tool and not involve compilation.

See also #425 for more discussion of potential designs and a bunch of workarounds. We should really probably coalesce all of these issues into a single one. Anyway, something that's not changed is that I'm mostly unlikely to start work on solving this. That said, now that askama_parser is available as a standalone crate (on main only for now) this might make things like this easier.

One use case which I haven't seen mentioned here yet is the ability to override templates at runtime to allow user customizable templates

Folks interested in this issue might like @rdbo's dynja, which uses minijinja for the debug profile and Askama for the release profile.
