# Dancer::Template::Simple(3pm)

pure Perl 5 template engine for Dancer

## NAME

Dancer::Template::Simple - pure Perl 5 template engine for Dancer

## VERSION

version 1.3521

## DESCRIPTION

This template engine is provided as a default one for the Dancer micro framework.

This template engine should be fine for development purposes but is not a powerful one, it's written in pure Perl and has no C bindings to accelerate the template processing.

If you want to power an application with Dancer in production environment, it's strongly advised to switch to Dancer::Template::TemplateToolkit.

## SYNTAX

A template written for Dancer::Template::Simple should be working just fine with Dancer::Template::TemplateToolkit. The opposite is not true though.

- **variables**

  To interpolate a variable in the template, use the following syntax:

  ```
      <% var1 %>
  ```

  If 'var1' exists in the tokens hash given, its value will be written there.
