Jinja2 vs Jinja3, why do all references for v3 go to Jinja2? #1899
-
|
When I go to the Jinja website, I notice in the URL that I am browsing version 3 of the docs, but when clicking the PyPI release I only get the jinja2-release, why is that? And when searching, I can't find a jinja3 PyPi release, only Jinja2. What is the relationship between Jinja2 and Jinja3?

The package name is Jinja2 for historical reasons. So it's Jjinja2 version 3 ;) |

Could you please elaborate a bit on historical reasons? :D |

last jinja (not jinja2) release was in 2007. before my time, probably only @mitsuhiko remembers the details. maybe it was to allow coexistence of jinja1 and jinja2 at some point. |
