To repeat or not to repeat yourself?

What do modern developers if they are forced to write repeated code? Of course, they follow DRY principle and try to write generic code that covers as much as possible cases and can easily be extended to the rest. But sometimes such a change is complex, inefficient, or simply impossible. Here template engines come into play that allow the developer to set the rules and get your service code. I propose to try to take the advantages of both these approaches.

You might have noticed in the recent storm of Web Tools releases that there’s a groovy new kid on the template engine block – Razor. A few customers have been asking folks on both teams some questions around this, such as the following. * Why do you have two engines? * When should I use each of these two engines? * When can I expect <feature X> from one engine to appear in the other one? So the T4 and Razor teams got ourselves together in a room and came up with a common way to express how we t... (more)
