Open-source JavaScript library for writing single-page web applications

**JsRender/JsViews** is an [open-source](/source/Open-source_license) [JavaScript](/source/JavaScript) [library](/source/Library_(computing)) for writing [single-page web applications](/source/Single-page_application) using [templates](/source/Web_template_system) and the [Model–view–viewmodel](/source/Model%E2%80%93view%E2%80%93viewmodel) [design pattern](/source/Design_pattern).

There are three libraries in two source files:

- **JsRender** is the template library

- **JsViews** is the [MVVM](/source/Model-View-ViewModel) library which provides two-way data binding for the templates - **JsObservable** is integrated with JsViews and facilitates observable data manipulations that are immediately reflected in the data-bound templates.

The library evolved out of the discontinued [jQuery](/source/JQuery) Templates.[1] It can also be used in server-side Javascript development using e.g. [node.js](/source/Node.js), [Python](/source/Python_(programming_language))'s [Django](/source/Django_(framework)) framework[2] or [Ruby on Rails](/source/Ruby_on_Rails).[3] JsRender/JsViews is hosted on [GitHub](/source/GitHub) and version 1.0 was released in November 2018.

The library is developed and maintained by [Microsoft](/source/Microsoft) employee Boris Moore and is used in projects such as [Outlook.com](/source/Outlook.com) and [Windows Azure](/source/Windows_Azure).[4]
