Template

Template is a simple class that provides an easy way to re-use and build HTML with jQuery. Extend the Template class, provide a string of HTML/jQuery, and start writing code like this:

var chatMessage = new ChatMessage()
    .setText("Hello!")
    .setSender("Darryl")
    .appendTo("body");

Result

<div class="chat">
   <span class="chat-sender">Darryl: </span>
   <span class="chat-msg">Hello!</span>
</div>

Every instance of Template inherits all jQuery functions, and you can even chain jQuery with your own class methods. A few Templates have been created and are available as add-on packages (must be included after Template): Feedback, Table - which includes RenderTable and Control Table, Form - which includes Wizard, and an increasing variety of Bootstrap classes.

Check out the Template wiki for examples and details.

Documentation & Tutorials

View the docs for a jsDoc documentation, or check out the Wiki for step-by-step explinations of how to use all of the classes.

Installation

Include the minified or non-minified production builds in your web app. For other Template libraries, like Table, Form, and the Bootstrap Templates, include them after the Template build files.

Dependencies

Template depends on the WebUtil library. This small library is already built into the distribution and does not need to be included.
