Language Items
There are 5 types of language items in Squirrelly:
- Global References are references to the data passed into the template.
Example:{{someval}} - Helper References are references that helpers create for your use.
Example:{{@index}} - Helpers are for logic in the template. Loops and conditionals are both implemented as native helpers, a special kind of helper that compiles into native JS code before rendering.
Example:{{foreach(options.obj)}} Display something {{/foreach}} - Filters are for processing references. Escaping and trimming are done with filters, and you can define your own that do anything from capitalizing letters to emojifying strings.
Example:{{someref | capitalize}}
