To render a JSON template using Mustache, you can use a library such as mustache.js. Here is an example of how you can render a JSON template using Mustache:

  1. First, include the mustache.js library in your HTML file:
1
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/mustache.js/4.1.0/mustache.min.js"></script>


  1. Create a JSON object with the data you want to render in the template:
1
2
3
4
5
var data = {
  "name": "John Doe",
  "age": 30,
  "city": "New York"
};


  1. Create a Mustache template with placeholders for the data:
1
2
3
4
5
<script id="template" type="x-tmpl-mustache">
  <p>Name: {{name}}</p>
  <p>Age: {{age}}</p>
  <p>City: {{city}}</p>
</script>


  1. Use the Mustache library to render the template with the data:
1
2
3
var template = document.getElementById('template').innerHTML;
var rendered = Mustache.render(template, data);
document.getElementById('output').innerHTML = rendered;


In this example, the JSON data object is used to replace the placeholders in the Mustache template, and the rendered output is inserted into an element with the id "output" in the HTML file.


This is a simple example, but Mustache provides more advanced features for handling more complex templates and data structures. Refer to the Mustache documentation for more information: https://github.com/janl/mustache.js/
