HTL Global Objects
Without having to specify anything, HTL provides access to many objects useful to the developer. These objects are in addition to any that may be introduced through the Use-API.
NOTEFor developers familiar with JSP development in AEM, HTL provides access to all objects that were commonly available in JSP after including
global.jsp.Enumerable Objects
These objects provide convenient access to commonly used information. Their content can be accessed with dot notation, and they can be iterated-through using data-sly-list or data-sly-repeat.
