Overview

Tilt integration which pre-processes ‘.booster` files by wrapping them in a CommonJS-like closure and converts inline templates to JavaScript functions using the Handlebars compiler. While it is at it, it also does string interpolation on regular JavaScript strings.

  # guessing of quote type ($1). Since the template functions compiled in the

  # as well, even if Handlebars does not support them by default. This is not
  # recommended though although it works.
