Presentation Styles
There are several different styles of presentation technology employed in the various Web application frameworks (see WebProgramming).
- ["Programmatic"]
An interesting article which introduces other useful terminology is [http://www.perl.com/pub/a/2001/08/21/templating.html "Choosing a Templating System"].
Syntax
In the area of syntax, several different design decisions are made alongside the above classifications, and this is often the principal reason that new template systems get invented:
Examples
Some presentation systems fall neatly into the categories above. Others are less easy to classify but have a closer association to one category than the others.
PythonInWebPage
StructureAnnotation
- ZPT (Zope Page Templates - see ["Zope"])
- DTML (Document Template Markup Language - see ["Zope"])
wt (see JonsPythonModules)
Hybrids
CHTL and CGTL (from CherryPy) - PythonInWebPage and StructureAnnotation
PyMeld - StructureAnnotation and ["Programmatic"]
["STML"] (from SkunkWeb) - PythonInWebPage, StructureAnnotation, and ["Programmatic"] being all equally apt (or equally inadequate)
Programmatic
- PTL (from ["Quixote"])
