Because Kajiki's input is XML, it can ensure that your HTML/XML output is well-formed. The Genshi-like syntax, based on XML attributes or tags, is simply beautiful and easily understood (or ignored) by web designers. But instead of the slow performance of Genshi_, Kajiki compiles templates to Python code that renders with blazing-fast speed, so Kajiki can compete with the speed of Jinja_, Mako_, Chameleon_ and others. Also, one of Genshi's misfeatures -- py:match -- is replaced with blocks which work like Jinja's blocks.
By combining the best ideas out there -- XML input, Genshi's syntax and features, Jinja's template inheritance and final compilation to Python --, Kajiki is ready to become the most widely used templating engine for web development in Python. And more features are coming soon; stay tuned!
