The same templates run on the browser and in Node.js, so you can use the same logic you use to serve a generate page to refresh that page.
On the server, we create a template and serialize it to HTML5. You can also serialize to older HTML flavors for older browsers.
On the browser, when we generate Stencil XML, we simply import it into the
existing DOM using Document.adoptNode.
Revisiting the ideas explored in a Java based Stencil.
Stencil is asynchronous HTML5 templating for Node.js and the browser. It based on some ideas from yesteryear and some ideas from tomorrow.
This project evolved from work with Streamline and CoffeeScript. That work has been moved to a project named Pastiche.
Especially when dealing with a library that has a goal of being small, you're limited as to how much scaffolding you can offer developers. My approach for Stencil is to define three roles, application developer, web developer, and web designer, and say the first two roles labor to create a childlike sense of wonder in the latter role.
An application developer creates APIs that the web developer can query. The web developer wraps those APIs in tag libraries, so that the web designer can focus on semantic layout.
