1.1 Introduction

[NOISE] ERb and Haml are two distinctive tools that serve the same purpose. What are the differences between one and the other? Hi, I'm Joseph Mata. I'm going to be your tutor for this Coffee Break Course on distinguishing between the two tools. ERb is the standard that also comes with the standard library in Ruby. You'll most definitely be used to it, but if you notice from the courses that I produce here on in Vital Talks Plus, you will know that I use Haml a lot.
