# Stencil

Stencil is a simple and powerful template language for Swift. It provides a
syntax similar to Django and Mustache. If you're familiar with these, you will
feel right at home with Stencil.

## Example

```html+django
There are {{ articles.count }} articles.


    {% for article in articles %}
  • {{ article.title }} by {{ article.author }}

  • {% endfor %}

```

```swift
import Stencil

struct Article {
let title: String
let author: String
}

let context = [
"articles": [
Article(title: "Migrating from OCUnit to XCTest", author: "Kyle Fuller"),
Article(title: "Memory Management with ARC", author: "Kyle Fuller"),
]
]

let environment = Environment(loader: FileSystemLoader(paths: ["templates/"]))
let rendered = try environment.renderTemplate(name: "article_list.html", context: context)

print(rendered)
```

## Philosophy

Stencil follows the same philosophy of Django:

> If you have a background in programming, or if you’re used to languages which
> mix programming code directly into HTML, you’ll want to bear in mind that the
> Django template system is not simply Python embedded into HTML. This is by
> design: the template system is meant to express presentation, not program
> logic.
