I'm generally not a huge fan of templating "languages". (Probably because they're almost never actual languages, and typically when they are, they turn into symbol soup that doesn't look anything like the end result, structurally speaking.)

That said, I've been using Spinneret for a side project[1] for a while, and overall I'm very happy with it. It's nice to have macros like deftag and all the other magic powers of Common Lisp, and because of CL's syntactic simplicity, the templates remain easy to read and reason about while getting a lot done.

I recommend giving Spinneret a try!
