Chapter 2. Building HTML Templates

After we successfully installed Meteor and set up our folder structure, we can now start building the basic templates for our blog.

In this chapter, we will learn how templates are built. We will see how to display data and how some parts can be altered using helper functions. We will take a look on adding events, using conditions, and understanding data contexts, all in templates.

The following is an overview of what will be covered in this chapter:

  • The basic template structure
  • Displaying data
