‘Production
Quality’

How?


Templating
Frameworks


WTF is that?


Frameworks that
allow bring in
science to FE
Development


There are
server side
ones and client
side ones.


Let’s talk
client side
Templates


Focus on
Logic-less
Templates


Why?


Let’s take a
simple example


<div>

Template <span> {{first_name}} </span>
<span> {{second_name}} </span>
<br/>
<span> {{city}} </span>

</div>


JSON
{
“first_name” : “Uday”,
“second_name” : “Shankar”,
“city” : “Bangalore”
}


Compiled <div>

<span> Uday </span>

HTML
<span> Shankar </span>
<br/>
<span> Bangalore </span>

</div>


Rendered
Output
Uday Shankar
Bangalore


Looks like too much
work to print three
words?

<h1> {{heading}} </h1>

<ul>

Template
{{#tweeters}}

<li>{{name}} [@{{twitter_handle}}]</li>

{{/tweeters}}

</ul>

<h2> {{hashtag}} </h2>


{
“heading” : “I follow them…”,
“tweeters” : [

JSON
{“name”: “Harish”,“twit_handle”: “hsivaram”},
{“name”: “Amit”,“twit_handle”: “amit_pande”},
{“name”: “Snook”,“twit_handle”: “snookca”},
{“name”: “Mrinal”,“twit_handle”: “mrinal”},
{“name”: “Sudar”,“twit_handle”: “sudarmuthu”},
],
“hashtag”: “#metarefresh”
}


<h1> I follow them… </h1>

Compiled <ul>
<li>Harish [@hsivaram]</li>
<li>Amit [@amit_pande}}]</li>

HTML
<li>Snook [@snookca]</li>
<li>Mrinal [@mrinal]</li>
<li>Sudar [@sudarmuthu]</li>

</ul>

<h2> #metarefresh </h2>


Rendered
