Flask & Jinja

So Flask like Django also uses a templating language, called Jinja . Which from what I've read is similar to Django's templating language. So maybe I should rethink my rethink? However in Flask's favor, Jinja IMHO, based on very preliminary research, is to use their words, modeled after Django’s templates. A more powerful Django templating language? It's starting to seem that a templating language is just a fact of life outside basic HTML. They say...

Features:

• sandboxed execution

• powerful automatic HTML escaping system for XSS prevention

• template inheritance

• compiles down to the optimal python code just in time

• optional ahead-of-time template compilation

• easy to debug. Line numbers of exceptions directly point to the correct line in the template.

• configurable syntax

Also other projects such as Ansible uses Jinja2.
