## Syntax Notes

This document uses **Handlebars syntax** (current standard since v3.5.0):
- Helper functions use space-separated arguments: `\{\{helper arg1 arg2\}\}`
- Subexpressions use parentheses: `\{\{helper (subhelper arg1) arg2\}\}`
- No commas between arguments

**Examples:**
- `\{\{formatDate today "MMMM Do, YYYY"\}\}` - Date formatting
- `\{\{formatCurrency amount currency\}\}` - Currency formatting
- `\{\{titleCase client_name\}\}` - String manipulation
- `\{\{formatDate (addMonths today 6) "YYYY-MM-DD"\}\}` - Nested helpers (subexpressions)

For the deprecated legacy syntax `\{\{helper(arg1, arg2)\}\}`, see [Handlebars migration guide](../../../docs/handlebars-migration.md).
