art-template is a JavaScript templating engine and HTML template compiler that transforms custom syntax and script statements into optimized HTML output. It functions as a precompiled template engine that converts template source into standalone JavaScript functions to render dynamic content from data.
The engine features a template inheritance framework that organizes layouts through nesting, blocks, and inclusions to create reusable components across multiple files. It incorporates automatic output sanitization and encoding to prevent cross-site scripting attacks.
The system includes capabilities for data filter transformations, output minification, and global template caching. It also provides template error debugging to pinpoint syntax or runtime errors within template files.
