The HTL Specification
The HTML Template Language (HTL) is the preferred and recommended server-site template system for HTML.
HTL Layers
HTL as used in AEM can be defined by a number of layers.
- HTL Specification - HTL is an open-source, platform-agnostic specification, which anyone is free to implement. Its specifications are maintained in its GitHub repo.
- Sling HTL Scripting Engine - The Sling project has created the reference implementation of HTL, which is used by AEM. Its documentation is maintained by the Sling project.
- AEM Extensions - AEM builds on top of the Sling HTL Scripting Engine in order to offer developers convenient features specific to AEM. These extensions are documented as part of this documentation set.
