HAML vs MoonScript: What are the differences?
HAML: HTML Abstraction Markup Language - A Markup Haiku. Haml is a markup language that’s used to cleanly and simply describe the HTML of any web document, without the use of inline code. Haml functions as a replacement for inline page templating systems such as PHP, ERB, and ASP. However, Haml avoids the need for explicitly coding HTML into the template, because it is actually an abstract description of the HTML, with some code to generate dynamic content; MoonScript: A programmer friendly language that compiles to Lua. It is a dynamic scripting language that compiles into Lua. It gives you the power of one of the fastest scripting languages combined with a rich set of features.
HAML and MoonScript belong to "Languages" category of the tech stack.
HAML and MoonScript are both open source tools. It seems that HAML with 3.44K GitHub stars and 546 forks on GitHub has more adoption than MoonScript with 2.19K GitHub stars and 156 GitHub forks.
