What is Emblem.js?
Emblem.js is an indentation-based templating language that compiles to Handlebars.js templates. It provides a cleaner, more concise syntax alternative to traditional Handlebars, specifically optimized for use with Ember.js applications. The language reduces visual noise by using whitespace for structure rather than explicit closing tags.
