Plenti CMS Devlog: Template Strings & Open Source Musings

This is a Dev Vlog series where Plentico maintainers work on the git-backed CMS for the Plentico project (https://github.com/plentico/plenti). We are building in public, so feel free to watch along, ask questions, or even contribute if you're so inclined.

In this video we discuss the bug about not being able to use template strings and expressions in Plenti. Jim explains the problem and the challenges associated with it and Jesse suggests some ideas about interacting with the v8go API to overcome this problem.
