Wake Scriban

Scriban dialect and conventions used inside Wake Storefront SSR .html templates. This skill is language-focused: syntax, expressions, built-ins, whitespace control, Wake-flavored idioms.

For project anatomy (folders, Configs/*.json contracts, Pages↔Queries wiring, Snippets/SnippetQueries pairing), use the sibling wake-template skill.

When you need depth this file doesn't cover, read the bundled docs in references/:

• references/language.md — full Scriban language reference (syntax, statements, expressions). Read for: advanced control flow, wrap, with, import, parametric functions, escape blocks beyond {%{ }%}.
• references/builtins.md — every built-in function (array.*, string.*, math.*, date.*, html.*, object.*, regex.*, timespan.*). Read when picking the right helper or checking signatures.
• references/liquid-support.md — Scriban's Liquid compatibility layer. Read only if migrating from Liquid or seeing {% ... %} style tags.
• references/runtime.md — .NET host API. Mostly irrelevant for template authors; read only when integrating Scriban into a custom .NET app.

External: Wake Scriban docs, Wake general docs, Scriban upstream.

Scriban Quick Reference (Wake-flavored)

Wake uses Scriban (not Liquid). The two share a lot of surface but Scriban is more expressive — prefer Scriban syntax in new code.

{{ expression }}                  output the expression
{{ x = 5 }}                       assignment, no output
{{ if cond }}...{{ end }}         control flow
{{~ ... ~}}                       greedy whitespace trim (left/right)
{{- ... -}}                       same as ~ for both sides
{{## doc-comment ##}}             multi-line comment (Wake header pattern, see below)
# inline comment                  to end of line, inside a code block
