KID is a pythonic template system. The KID templates are well-formed XML
files but the generated document can be HTML or even plain text (this
should be supported in some of the latest versions).

The KID templates have some simple control structures like 'if' and 'for'
which are modeled to be similar to python. The way it works is you feed the
template some data and it generates HTML documents. The document can have a
reference to a CSS file just like any other HTML page.
