  1. Define: Pitfall • Mixed logic + markup • No namespaces

    • Performance issues • Security is an afterthought • Dollar signs
  2. Define: Easy • Drop-in upgrades • No URL mapping •

    Run everywhere • Progressive enhancement • No setup*
  3. Keystone by Example {% set greeting = "Hello" %} <!doctype

    html> <html> <head> <title>{{greeting}} from Keystone</title> </head> <body> <h1>Hello, world</h1> </body> </html>
  4. Keystone by Example import random greeting = random.choice(['Hello', 'Goodbye']) name

    = random.choice(['World', 'Moon']) ---- <!doctype html> <html> <head> <title>{{greeting}} from Keystone</title> </head> <body> <h1>{{greeting}}, {{name}}</h1> </body> </html>
  5. Keystone by Example import pymongo db = pymongo.Connection()['test'] rslt =

    db.greetings.find_one() ---- <!doctype html> <html> <head> <title>{{rslt.greeting}} from Keystone</title> </head> <body> <h1>{{rslt.greeting}}, {{rslt.name}}</h1> </body> </html>
  6. Keystone by Example import pymongo, gridfs db = pymongo.Connection()['test'] storage

    = gridfs.GridFS() fileobj = gridfs.get_latest_version('image.png') header('Content-Type', 'image/png') return_response(fileobj) ----
