What is ede?
ED-E is a templating language written in Haskell with a specific set of features: Logicless within reason. A small set of consistent predicates and expressions for formatting and presentational logic are provided. Secure. No arbitrary code evaluation, with input data required to be fully specified at render time. Stateless. Parsing and rendering are separate steps so that loading, parsing, include resolution, and embedding of the compiled template can optionally be done ahead of time, amortising cost. Markup agnostic. ED-E is used to write out everything from configuration files for system services, to HTML and formatted emails. Control over purity. Users can choose pure or IO-based resolution of include expressions. No surprises. All parsing, type assurances, and rendering steps report helpful error messages with line/column metadata. Variable shadowing, unprintable expressions, implicit type coercion, and unbound variable access are all treated as errors.
ede is a tool in the Build Automation category of a tech stack.

NuGet
A free and open-source package manager designed for the Microsoft development platform. It is also distributed as a Visual Studio extension.
RubyGems
It is a package manager for the Ruby programming language that provides a standard format for distributing Ruby programs and libraries, a tool designed to easily manage the installation of gems, and a server for distributing them.
Bower
Bower is a package manager for the web. It offers a generic, unopinionated solution to the problem of front-end package management, while exposing the package dependency model via an API that can be consumed by a more opinionated build stack. There are no system wide dependencies, no dependencies are shared between different apps, and the dependency tree is flat.
