Standard data filters
Data and Logic · Working
What is this skill?
Standard data filters are built-in Nunjucks functions like 'default', 'lower', 'upper', and 'trim' that transform data when displaying it in templates.
Why is it important?
- Default values – Show placeholder text when data is missing
- Text formatting – Capitalise names or format strings consistently
- Data cleaning – Remove whitespace or standardise input
- Safe display – Handle missing or undefined values gracefully
