Hi! I really like this project, but I'm currently testing out piaf. I forked the code and removed the dream dependency, and found I only had to inline a few functions to make it standalone. Could it be split into two opam files, core and dream? That way, it could be reused in projects using cohttp, piaf, etc.

Hi, that's an interesting idea but I'm not sure at the moment. As you say, it seems to be relatively simple to factor out the Dream-specific parts and leave only a general-purpose HTML eDSL. Could you publish that version somewhere, maybe as a gist, so I can take a look? Want to check it out and think about it a bit.

Sure, here is the branch I'm working off of: https://github.com/yawaramin/dream-html/compare/main...joprice:removeDream?expand=1

Thought about this. IMHO sticking with Dream will be the best option for me personally. I think that Dream will migrate to Eio (or some equivalent) in the future and become even easier to use. I like the idea of sticking with a stable approach.
