JavaScript Templating
JavaScript templating is a technique for generating dynamic HTML content by embedding data into predefined templates, often using special syntax or tags. It allows developers to separate presentation logic from business logic, making code more maintainable and reusable. Templating engines parse these templates, replace placeholders with actual data, and output rendered HTML strings.
Developers should use JavaScript templating when building dynamic web applications that require frequent updates to the UI based on changing data, such as in single-page applications (SPAs) or server-side rendering. It simplifies the process of generating complex HTML structures from JavaScript objects, reducing manual string concatenation and improving performance by minimizing DOM manipulations. Common use cases include rendering lists, forms, or user dashboards with real-time data.
