The templating engine is an interesting, and slightly curious, addition here. It looks significantly more flexible than anything nginx offers without having to bolt on a server-side language like PHP - unless nginx has something similar in its millions of modules that I'm not aware of. (I know about and love nginx SSIs, but the templating here looks more flexible than them.)
