jael

Pubbuild status

A simple server-side HTML templating engine for Dart.

Though its syntax is but a superset of HTML, it supports features such as:

  • Custom elements
  • Loops
  • Conditionals
  • Template inheritance
  • Block scoping
  • switch syntax
  • Interpolation of any Dart expression

Jael is a good choice for applications of any scale, especially when the development team is small,or the time invested in building an SPA would be too much.

  • package:jael - Contains the Jael parser, AST, and HTML renderer.
  • package:jael_preprocessor - Handles template inheritance, and facilitates the use of "compile-time" constructs.
  • package:build_jael - Uses package:build to compile Jael templates, therefore allowing speedy incremental builds to HTML files.
  • package:angel_jael - Angel support for Jael. Angel contains otherfacilities to speed up application development, so something like Jael is right at home.
