## L.mapbox.template(template, data)

A mustache template rendering function, as used by the templating feature provided by `L.mapbox.gridControl`.

Options | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
template | string | The template string
data | object | Data you wish to pass into the template string

Example:

    var output = L.mapbox.template('Name: {{name}}', {name: 'John'});
    // output is "Name: John"

Mapbox.js is optimized for mobile devices and small screens by default. There are, however, best practices to make sure your map always looks its best.
