JavaScript razor view engine. The razor syntax (also used in asp.net mvc) keeps your html clean and allows you to use javascript in your templates.
Check out the examples for more information.
If you want to run the tests, be sure to install the devDependencies first by using
npm install
npm install jshtml
<html>
<head>
<title>@locals.title</title>
</head>
<body>
<ul class="Task">
@locals.taskList.forEach(function(task, index) {
<li class="@(index % 2 ? "Odd" : "Even")">
@tag('a', {href: '/task/' + task.id}, task.name)
</li>
});
</ul>
<ul class="Task">
@for(var taskIndex = 0, taskCount = locals.taskList.length; taskIndex < taskCount; taskIndex ++){
var task = locals.taskList[taskIndex];
<li class="@(taskIndex % 2 ? "Odd" : "Even")">
<a href="/task/@task.id">@task.name</a>
</li>
}
</ul>
