Is there a common convention for template extensions when using Nunjucks?

Question

When working with Nunjucks templates which requite rendering or compilation is there a standard naming convention to be used to have them processed? i.e. file.nunjucks, file.nunjucks.html, or file.njs etc.

I know that when working with other template languages it's common to use their name as the extension such as file.liquid, file.ejs, etc, but I've not seen much in reference to Nunjucks.

Answer 1

I personally prefer the extension '.njk', its also something that they have as an example on the Nunjucks docs.

File Extensions

Although you are free to use any file extension you wish for your Nunjucks template files, the Nunjucks community has adopted .njk.

If you are developing tools or editor syntax helpers for Nunjucks, please include recognition of the .njk extension.
