Introduction to Nunjucks
Nunjucks is a sophisticated templating engine for JavaScript. It lets you insert dynamic content in any text through the use of templates. A template contains variables and/or expressions, which get replaced with values when a template is rendered; and tags, which control the logic of the template. See here for an overview of the templating features available in Nunjucks.
