This is Scalasti, a Scala interface to the StringTemplate Java template library.

Scalasti provides a (useful) subset of the StringTemplate API's features, with a more Scala-friendly syntax.

Scalasti's additional features include:

• Immutability. As of version 3.0.0, Scalasti objects are immutable, unlike the StringTemplate objects. Modifier methods always create new objects; they never modify objects in place. Immutability is more functional and more idiomatic to Scala, and an immutable Scalasti API was long overdue.

• Error-handling. Where possible, Scalasti propagates errors via scala.util.Try objects, instead of via a StringTemplate listener. This approach is also more idiomatic to Scala.

• Scala object support. Scalasti supports Scala objects, meaning you don't have to use @BeanProperty on your Scala classes before you can pass them into a template. This feature also allows you to use instances of third-party Scala classes directly with Scalasti.

• Stronger type safety. You should never need to cast objects you receive from the Scalast API.

• Mapped aggregates provide the ability to add maps (which can be nested) as template attributes, which you can then deference within the template via dot-notation.
