What is Jinja?

Jinja is a fast, expressive, extensible templating engine. Special placeholders in the template allow writing code similar to Python syntax. Then the template is passed data to render the final document.

It includes:

  • Template inheritance and inclusion.
  • Define and import macros within templates.
  • HTML templates can use autoescaping to prevent XSS from untrusted user input.
  • A sandboxed environment can safely render untrusted templates.
  • AsyncIO support for generating templates and calling async functions.
  • I18N support with Babel.
  • Templates are compiled to optimized Python code just-in-time and cached, or can be compiled ahead-of-time.
  • Exceptions point to the correct line in templates to make debugging easier.
  • Extensible filters, tests, functions, and even syntax.
