+A software for automatic generation of attendance lists for use at school. Our faculty/department uses physical attendance lists for logging every class and all the attendees.
 
 This program is written in Rust in order to run as a single binary.
 
 ## Installation
 
-Install rust/cargo (nightly edition), clone this repository and run `cargo build --release`. The binary will be saved to `target/build/release`.

 ## Usage
 
-In order to generate a full set of lists (PDF files), you need to have a TOML source file and a template written in HTML.
-The program reads the input file, checks all relevant variables and tries to find them in the template.
-If a variable is found, it gets filled with data from the source file variable of the same name.
-In case the variable is not found in the template, it gets ignored and the program continues to the next variable.

 ### Template
 
-The template has two sides, front and back.
-Both are static HTML files (with styles) ready for clean printing (`@media print` query).
-The template should contain variables, which would be later replaced by the generator.
-The format, in which a variable should be written, is `{{ variable_name }}` anywhere in the HTML document, for example:
