The problem I have with those is that they are designed for HTML.
What if I wanted to make an email template instead?
Erb is like a Ruby preprocessor that can be used for any format. It's
used for many things in Ruby on Rails:
index.html.erb - Erb preprocessor, result is HTML
<% if foo %>
<li>asd</li>
<% end %>
bar.js.coffee.erb - Erb then CoffeeScript preprocessor, result is JavaScript
<% if foo %>
bar = -> console.log("asd")
<% end %>
foo.text.erb - Erb preprocessor, result is plain text
<% if foo %>
asd
<% end %>
database.yml.erb - Erb preprocessor, result is YAML
development:
username: <%= username %>
password: <%= password %>
