Ian compares Pylons and TurboGears and makes a few interesting general observations along the way.
A brief history of the Kid templating language and an endorsement for the next generation of XML-based templating: Genshi.
Template Inheritence, Match Templates (kind of like XSLT’s), cElementTree support, a refined Python API, documentation…
Kid 0.5 announcement with a couple of page fulls of example usage.
Why I prefer ElementTree to “standard” DOM APIs and why it’s sometimes better than libxml2.
Ross Burton builds the first real-world application using Kid Templates.
On changing from GPL to MIT, going after web-framework support, and simplifying as much as possible.
Trying to figure out a way of providing XSLT-like template matching in Kid.
Why not extend XSLT to be easier instead of building a new template language?
This release is all about documentation.
How I decided to build Kid – the simple, pythonic, XML-based template language.
“In the remaining four templates, the translation from XSLT to Genshi markup is straightforward. And generally, the Genshi markup is both more compact and more powerful.”
Browser-side JavaScript template engine with concepts borrowed from Kid. Used by Freebase to drive formatting around JSON. Looks interesting.
Another interesting take on multi-select lists that uses checkboxes with labels and colors.
I have no idea … but I'm digging the Kid and TG references ;)
Really cool to see TG and Kid getting some press on O'Reilly
David Hansson (of Ruby on Rails fame) on why codeless template languages don’t work.
Ahhh, shucks..
Excellent look at various HTML and XML templating methodologies..
Elliotte Rusty Harold announces Kid to the masses. thanks!
Leslie Orchard with some thoughts on Kid. I'll have to get a post out on exactly what I'm looking to steal from XSLT.
