Templates support common control structures like if, elseif and else to handle branching paths in your template.

{else if isZero number}

Conditional Syntax

Expressions support both lisp-like and javascript syntax wherever expressions are used including in conditionals.

{#if isEqual(a, b) }
  A is B
{else if isEqual a c}

{/if}

Conditional Helpers

Template helpers can be used to make your templates easier to read and to provide common utilities like checking if a value is empty.
