String Template Libraries
String template libraries are software libraries that provide tools for generating dynamic text output by combining static templates with variable data. They separate presentation logic from business logic, allowing developers to define reusable templates with placeholders that are filled at runtime. Common features include conditional logic, loops, and formatting options to create HTML, XML, emails, reports, or other text-based content.
Developers should use string template libraries when building applications that require dynamic text generation, such as web applications for rendering HTML views, email systems for personalized messages, or reporting tools for formatted documents. They improve code maintainability by keeping templates in separate files, enhance security through built-in escaping mechanisms to prevent injection attacks, and support localization by managing multiple template versions for different languages.
