Conditionals

Use conditionals to render sections conditionally based on context values.

Syntax

if subscribed:
    << Thanks for subscribing, ${name}! >>
else:
    <<< Please consider subscribing. >>

Rendered results

• When subscribed is true and name is Dana:

Thanks for subscribing, Dana!

• When subscribed is false or missing:

Please consider subscribing.

Notes

• Conditions evaluate truthiness: missing, false, empty, or null values are treated as false.
• You can reference nested values with dotted paths, e.g. user.active.
• There is no support for complex expressions — stick to presence and simple boolean checks.

Tip: Use margarita metadata or a dry render to ensure required context keys are present before running in production.
