We use bog standard HTML with custom data- attributes (whose intention is pretty much obvious) and our binding library automagically populates it. So the learning-curve for people joining the project is basically... "do you know HTML?"

Want a span to show the live content of foo.bar.baz? <span data-source="foo.bar.baz"></span>.



great idea here. love it. is there an example out there of these 'bindings' that somebody with strong html / css but weak javascript skills would be able to grasp and implement into a site?



Our system is intentionally much simpler than this -- the idea being that if it becomes like a "language" people will do stupid things in it that need to be debugged.


We're supposedly open-sourcing our codebase (it's for a Federal government project) but the process of deciding the licensing seems to be interminable (yes, shocking I know).
