Is there an alternative to XSLT 1.0 as a declarative template engine?
The question is on topic, but I will give a few clarifications.
In XSLT, I consider pluses:
* declarativeness
* expressive and powerful matching
* XPath and all its power inside
* XML at the input
* implementation in a large number of platforms and programming languages
* some, but support in the browser
Cons:
* excessive description redundancy
* confusion with xsl:import and template weights in large projects
* complexity of refactoring
* high entry threshold (not comparable with imperative templating engines)
I would be grateful for any names and links. I will be interested even in candidates who do not satisfy all the points described above.
If you have used any of the alternatives, it will be nice to hear about your impressions of them as well.
PS I know about XJST ( https://github.com/veged/xjst) .
