In this example, the `Mustache.render` function takes two parameters: 1) the [mustache](http://mustache.github.com/) template and 2) a `view` object that contains the data and code needed to render the template.

## API

Following is an [rtype](https://git.io/rtype) signature of the most commonly used functions.

```js
Mustache.render(
template : String,
view : Object,
partials? : Object,
) => String

Mustache.parse(
template : String,
tags = ['{{', '}}'] : Tags,
) => String

interface Tags [String, String]
```

## Templates

A [mustache](http://mustache.github.com/) template is a string that contains any number of mustache tags. Tags are indicated by the double mustaches that surround them. `{{person}}` is a tag, as is `{{#person}}`. In both examples we refer to `person` as the tag's key. There are several types of tags available in mustache.js, described below.
