Hamlet vs Mustache: What are the differences?
Hamlet: Simple and powerful reactive templating. Never touch the DOM by hand again - Hamlet does a great job of transparently keeping your model code in sync with the DOM. So much so that in most cases you never have to access a DOM element by hand. The resulting markup is free of excess attrs, data-attrs, and directives; Mustache: Logic-less templates. Mustache is a logic-less template syntax. It can be used for HTML, config files, source code - anything. It works by expanding tags in a template using values provided in a hash or object. We call it "logic-less" because there are no if statements, else clauses, or for loops. Instead there are only tags. Some tags are replaced with a value, some nothing, and others a series of values.
Hamlet and Mustache can be primarily classified as "Templating Languages & Extensions" tools.
Hamlet and Mustache are both open source tools. Mustache with 13.2K GitHub stars and 2.3K forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than Hamlet with 377 GitHub stars and 11 GitHub forks.
