HTML Templates: Not a new idea, definitely faster than rolling your own

About fifteen years ago at a startup, I built a very data-heavy single page app for biologists to manage a map/reduce version of a gene sequencing engine, and because it was data heavy, it made use of templates to render much of the HTML.
