About:
Grantlee is a library suite implementing the Django template system in Qt. It allows developers to separate application logic from presentation by processing templates with dynamic data. Its main value is providing a robust, Qt-native templating engine for generating text, HTML, or XML output.

Key Features:

Django template language compatibility
Qt integration and type safety
Plugin-based text loading and rendering
Custom template tags and filters support

Use Cases:

Generating dynamic HTML reports in Qt applications
Creating configuration files from templates
Building email or SMS content from data models

Alternatives:

Qt QTemplate – Grantlee is more feature-complete and follows Django syntax, while QTemplate is more limited.
Jinja2 – Jinja2 is Python-based; Grantlee provides similar functionality for C++/Qt environments.
