XRB

XRB is a templating system built loosely on top of XHTML markup. It uses efficient native parsers where possible and compiles templates into efficient Ruby. It also includes a markup builder to assist with the generation of pleasantly formatted markup which is compatible with the included parsers.

<h1>XRB Examples</h1>

<ul>
	<li>XRB uses normal string interpolation syntax: #{"Hello World"}</li>

	<?r if true ?>
	<li>XRB also adopts standard #{"<?r ... ?>"} script tags</li>
	<?r end ?>
	
	<!-- That's all of the syntax! -->
<ul>

Generates the following output using XRB::Template.load_file(path).to_string:

<h1>XRB Examples</h1>

<ul>
	<li>XRB uses normal string interpolation syntax: Hello World</li>

	<li>XRB also adopts standard &lt;?r ... ?&gt; script tags</li>
	
	<!-- That's all of the syntax! -->
<ul>

Is it fast?

Yes. XRB is designed to be fast. It uses a combination of efficient native parsers and Ruby code generation to ensure that templates are compiled into efficient Ruby code. This means that XRB is suitable for use in high performance applications. In comparison to ERB, it is generally about 10x faster.
