I like [Shopify's](http://www.shopify.com/?ref=snaptortoise) tempting language [Liquid](https://help.shopify.com/themes/liquid/basics). It's not all that dissimilar to [Twig](http://twig.sensiolabs.org/) or [Swig](https://github.com/paularmstrong/swig). I find it far more legible to me than Jade or HAML or some other such thing. It also has some very nice [filters](https://help.shopify.com/themes/liquid/filters) for formatting your data.

I found a great reference for the `date` filter a while back and wanted to share it:
