What can mustache be used for in JavaScript?
Mustache is a logic-less template syntax. It can be used for HTML, config files, source code – anything. It works by expanding tags in a template using values provided in a hash or object. We call it “logic-less” because there are no if statements, else clauses, or for loops. Instead there are only tags.
What happens when you pass markup to a template?
Once the template is compiled you can pass the data to the template to create the merged HTML. In this example the movie object is passed to the template, which is now a function. It returns the merged markup. The new markup can now be inserted in the DOM.
It works by expanding tags in a template using values provided in a hash or object. We call it “logic-less” because there are no if statements, else clauses, or for loops. Instead there are only tags. Some tags are replaced with a value, some nothing, and others a series of values.
What does it mean to be framework agnostic for mustache?
Mustache is framework agnostic, meaning it is not tightly coupled to a particular library, framework or language. The ability to stand-alone is always an important ‘feature’ when I evaluate potential utility libraries. There are many implentations in different languages.
What are the parameters of mustache.render function?
In this example, the Mustache.render function takes two parameters: 1) the mustache template and 2) a view object that contains the data and code needed to render the template. A mustache template is a string that contains any number of mustache tags.
A mustache template is a string that contains any number of mustache tags. Tags are indicated by the double mustaches that surround them. {{person}} is a tag, as is {{#person}}. In both examples we refer to person as the tag’s key.
