KTextTemplate
Books
The Books application from Qt Demos is modified to export the available data to a rendered html file. The example shows a use of the extends
tag to override some parts of a base template. The templates can be edited to change the exported content without any recompiling. The themer has broad control over how the data os rendered and can even alter the structure of the presented data.
Codegen
The codegen example shows how to use KTextTemplate for code generation in multiple languages. The application can be used to generate classes in C++, python and ruby based on the content of the dialog. The user can define properties, which are generated appropriately to the language. For C++ it uses the Q_PROPERTY
macro and creates an accessor a mutator and a notify signal. It can also be used to generate methods with arguments of any type in each language.

Contacts
The contacts application demostrates the use of the internationalization and localization features in KTextTemplate. The user can select several contacts, whose details are formatted in templates for display in different themes. All strings in the templates are translatable, and the numbers, dates and currencies can be localized. The Contacts example can be used with the Qt or the KDE localization systems.

Html application framework
The htmlapps example demonstrates how string templates can form part of a larger platform for html based applications. The application consists of a an extensible set of templates containing html applications, a KTextTemplate plugin to extract data from rss feeds, and various infrastructure to handle local and remote network requests and render the result in WebKit.
Several html applications are part of the example, such as capabilities for showing weather information, flickr feeds, identica microblogging etc.
