## What it is
LiquidJS is a pure JavaScript implementation of the Liquid template engine, compatible with Shopify, Jekyll, and GitHub Pages templates. It parses templates to a safe AST without eval, runs in Node.js and browsers, and supports streaming rendering and TypeScript.

## Use cases
- render liquid templates in nodejs
- make shopify themes work in javascript
- render jekyll templates in the browser
- safe template rendering without eval
- stream html rendering to node streams
- render templates from the command line
- build a static site with liquid templates

## When to choose
- you need Shopify/Jekyll-compatible Liquid rendering in JavaScript
- you want a safe, typed, dependency-free template engine for Node or browser
- you need streaming template output for large pages

## When to avoid
- you need a non-Liquid templating syntax like Handlebars or EJS
- you need server-side rendering of a full frontend framework
- your project is not JavaScript/TypeScript based

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: templating, parser
- domain: web-development, frontend, backend, developer-tools
- platform: browser, cli, cross-platform
- tags: liquid, template-engine, shopify, jekyll, typescript, static-site-generator, nodejs
