[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/nicolas-van/jiko.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/nicolas-van/jiko) [![npm](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/jiko.svg)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/jiko)

Jiko is a modern and easy to use template engine for Javascript. Its objective is to provide to Javascript programmers a

way to write templates with an engine as powerful as server-side state of the art template engines like Jinja and Mako.

```

    <%

        var rows = _.map(_.range(0, 10), function(el) { return _.range(0, 10); });

    %>

    {% function name="makeRow" %}

        

        % a.row.forEach(function(name) {

            ${name}

        % });

        

    {% end %}

    

        % rows.forEach(function(row) {

            %{makeRow({row: row})}

        % });

    

```

Jiko's features:

* Its syntax is as simple and direct as possible. Influenced by well-known template engines.

* *Don't reinvent the wheel!* Why use a new language for expressions when you can use JavaScript?

* Allows multiple templates to be defined in a single template file.

* Compiles templates directly to Javascript to be one of the fastest JavaScript template engines ever.

* Allows browser-side on-the-fly compilation for development and server-side compilation for production.

* Works in a browser (IE7, Chrome, Firefox) and inside Node.js.

* Uses the MIT open source licence.

Jiko is still in development. You can help to improve it on Github.
