Slim VS Liquid

I spent a few days of my spare time building a VS Code extension that would bring better syntax highlighting for the Slim template language to the editor. I quite enjoyed most of the process so I’d like to share what I learned.

I think they mean Server Side Rendering (normal rails controllers/views), and Slim is just the name of the templating engine. It's a little nicer than the default ERB. https://github.com/slim-template/slim

There's also SSR with react and other js frameworks, but I don't think that's what they meant.

Checkout slim https://github.com/slim-template/slim it's a templating language

And this is what the HTML looks like (I'm using slim):

The template renders the tag and inside it the link and the counter itself (the Slim template language and Tailwind styling are used here, hopefully the notation is sufficiently self-explaining):

In this part of the series, let's explore another popular templating language, Slim.

Templating languages are widely used in Web development and two of the most popular ones are Pug and Slim. In this series, we're going to learn the basics of these two and hopefully they would help improve your workflow further.

You may want to checkout slim I'v tried ERB, SLIM, and HAML and absolutely sware by slim it's very easy to use and saves a ton of typing compared to ERB.

Now, before running the scripts, you need to define values for the placeholders {{db_name}}, {{db_user}}, {{db_pass}}, {{github_access_token}}, {{github_user}}, {{repo_name}}, and {{domain}} used in the scrips. CloudRay processes all scripts as Liquid templates. This allows you to use variables dynamically across different servers.

Liquid tags are special elements to use in markdown. They are custom embeds that are added via a {% %} syntax. Liquid is a templating language developed by Shopify.

Welcome to the Liquid party—where Shopify’s templating magic comes to life, and we’re about to have some serious fun. Liquid is a Ruby-powered, open-source language that’s all about making dynamic content a breeze, whether you’re crafting a blog with Jekyll or a slick Shopify store. Think of it as the friendly middleman between your raw data—like titles and tags—and a polished webpage, without any scary server-side shenanigans.

You might notice that the prompt has template instructions in there. To create this we used the Fluid library which is based on the Liquid template language from Shopify. It's got some great features in it and helps to make the prompt generation pretty powerful.

Liquid is a template language created by shopify. In my use case I use it for generate html that is almost similar looking but differs in data. So when iterating over my HTML, I need to preview the changes I made combined with my data.

Inside the blog directory, create an index.liquid file. This will be our blog’s homepage. Eleventy provides a number of options when selecting a template engine. For this project, we’ll use Liquid.

Templating engine: SSGs rely on templating engines to define the structure of web pages. These engines enable developers to create reusable templates and incorporate dynamic content. Popular templating engines include Liquid, Handlebars, Mustache, EJS, ERB, HAML, and Slim.

Assuming I understand the ask, I think my approach would be to have a trigger fire when a ticket's custom field is set to "add user to the application." That trigger would notify a webhook. That webhook would be set to the Organization API endpoint with a payload that uses liquid markup to add 1 to the existing Organization's value.

For example, their theme templates use Liquid, which is a html templating system for Ruby. Activemerchant also was released by Shopify, and it provides a interface to major payment providers like PayPal.
