Congratulations to Hampton, Nathan, and the rest of the Haml core team on their most recent release.
Haml is an alternative to ERb (aka RHTML) view templates that allows you to build your pages with a semantic, nested structure using familiar CSS-like syntax. Not only is Haml now almost as fast as ERb, it is demonstrably 16 times faster than its competitor, Markaby. Pow!
A year on, Haml is being taken seriously not just by Rails developers, but increasingly by designers that use Haml to realize a 1:1 connection between their markup and CSS. Creative teams love Haml!
