I am working in these days on the front side of an application that need to manage a huge amount of data pushed in JSON format.
These datas are not needed to be analyzed or filtered.
What I need is to be able to display info ( coming in a unique set of data ) in many different part of the page using quite complex html generated by many conditional statements. Of course I need to be able to refresh the different areas individually.
I have used in the past spry or ext in these case but I always considered both oversized for this job, at the end the dataset has not to be manipulated.
I have then found a very powerfull solutions in jTemplates. This is a wonderfull templating tool that can be used as jquery plugin or in plain js. Between the features available :
- conditional statements
- looping
- parameters
- nested templates
Performance are very good. Have a try I really recommend this.
