Haml VS Latte

First of all, I like Slim. I like the beauty and cleanness of Slim templates, to me they are way more readable than regular ERB templates and I think they fit in the ruby/Rails ecosystem very well. Slim is a close cousin to Haml, without the ugly percent characters, haha. I've used Slim exclusively in my projects since about 2016. - Source: dev.to / 6 months ago

> I can't say what problem it is supposed to solve "Haml accelerates and simplifies template creation" https://haml.info/ If you'd rather write raw HTML, keeping track of closing tags etc, then don't use HAML. No need to bash it because you personally feel it is ugly or unnecessary. FWIW I personally feel the exact opposite. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

There is a better side by side of the syntax here https://haml.info (i've been using haml for 17 years lol, I find it more enjoyable to read and write). - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

Personally, I'd recommend Maud if you don't need something with runtime reloading. Not only is it much faster, it implements a template language that is effectively the Rust-syntax equivalent to Slim or Haml using a procedural macro, so you get compile-time verification that your HTML output is well-formed.

Does this support HAML-style syntax? We're 100% HAML-only for templating, whether normal Rails views or ViewComponent... https://github.com/haml/haml so going back to writing HTML or ERB feels like a huge downgrade. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

Have a look at Latte. It gives you a template engine that looks and feels a lot like PHP itself, rather than being a port of Python. Source: about 1 year ago

FTLOG, use a template engine. Do NOT use PHP itself as a template engine (ironic given its origins). The best are probably Twig (https://twig.symfony.com/) (used by Symfony and a few others) and Latte (https://latte.nette.org/) (less widely used, but its syntax is *way* more learnable as it's more like PHP itself).

You may have already used some of Nette's tools in other projects you've worked on and not known it! There is the very extendable Tracy for debugging similar to Whoosh, and Latte for intuitive HTML templating. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

The target of the project is that more libraries / modules allow to use any Template engines the project want and see the more a as data provider. Also this kind of abstraction should make libraries e.g. a async mailer easier be integrated into different frameworks. A common usecase for myself is that Sulu CMS does not only support Twig but also other Template engines like example Latte which has interesting... Source: over 1 year ago

Nette is a PHP framework made by David Grudl and it is a great alternative to Symfony and Laravel. It has an amazing templating system called Latte that uses similar syntax to PHP and by default has context-sensitive escaping (which no other framework has). In my opinion, it is easier to learn, because it comes with a simple structure by default, it has no dependencies and less patterns to learn. - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago
