Scalate is a Scala 2.8 based template engine for generating text and markup which can be used in the following frameworks and environments:

* stand alone in any JVM or as a Servlet Filter in any Java in a web application
* with JAXRS with Jersey
* in the Play Framework via play-scalate
* in Apache Camel for transforming messages and templating
* to generate your static or semi-static website

Scalate supports the following template formats

* Mustache which is a Scala dialect of Mustache for logic-less templates which also work inside the browser using mustache.js
* Scaml which is a Scala dialect of Haml and is very DRY for generating HTML / XHTML
* Jade which is an even more DRY dialect of Scaml for HTML / XHTML markup generation
* SSP which is like Velocity, JSP or Erb from Rails

Scalate also has a powerful web console and command line shell which includes converters from JSP or HTML to Scalate
