That statement seems simple and correct at first, but the term "user" is not well defined. Even if there was only one user in the world, me, it still isn't well defined. The reason being that I can't tell you right now a

I've used template libs to do this in the past, e.g. mustache.js, handlebars.js, Jinja2, etc. Then generating JSON as output instead of HTML. Usually quick to learn the template libraries DSL, and I find templates easier to read than t
