Ryan Baldwin

Ryan Baldwin is a theatre major turned computer science geek. Hailing from the prairies of Western Canada, Ryan has been developing software on a wide array of platforms and technologies since 2001. Once, he wrote a crazy system application that compiled XSD Schema Docs into XAML forms that performed two-way binding with underlying XML documents in .NET WPF. Why? Because it had to be done. Another time, he worked on a project that would mash multiple social networks together, allowing users to find out who they were indirectly "connected" to (something akin to 6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon). It was eventually shelved. In 2012, he relocated to Toronto, where he works with the University Health Network, developing systems and tools that facilitate patient information exchange. You can often find him wearing headphones and jittering in coffee shops.

What is Selmer?


Selmer is a pure Clojure template system. Taking big inspiration from Django, Selmer provides a familiar syntax to one of the leading template systems in the world. With simple syntax, Selmer allows us to create text files and bind values within those files to symbols you define in Clojure. Additionally, Selmer provides syntax to perform conditional rendering, looping, template inheritance, and so on.

Note

Instead of covering Selmer in its entirety, we will only cover that which we need, and at the time when we need it. For a more comprehensive overview of Selmer, I encourage you to visit https://github.com/yogthos/selmer.
