Preview:

Display contents of a shopping cart as an ul list: <<Cart.contents().ul();>> Display contents of a shopping cart excluding fruits as an ul list with class "someclass": <<Cart.contents(
  {"exclude":"fruits"}
).ul({"class":"someclass"});>> The principle is like: Object.action(
  {"parameter":"value"}
).modifier({"parameter":"value"}) Hey, that looks familiar, right? It looks like jQuery or something!

HTML coders shouldn't care about asssigning variables, looping through a set of values and so on. They should call a shopping cart and get a shopping cart! There should be no need for coders to dig into a program code. Tha's programmers job. And programmer shouldn't care what's in the template.
