Is there an existing library to render handlebar templates in .NET?
I would like to use this as a templating engine for users to create HTML email templates
I've spent a few hours looking, but can't seem to find anything. A wrapped up javascript rendering model would be ok, but a native library better.
Otherwise, is there a similar templating engine more suited to the .NET environment?

Pro Handlebars Handlebars is good for rendering in CLI-apps, non-HTML text content, server-side rendering of pure contents. Handlebars has been ported to many programming languages (Java, Rust etc).
Handlebars is popular for both back-end and front-end templating. For example, the popular front-end framework Ember uses Handlebars as the templating engine. Handlebars is an extension of the Mustache template language, which is mostly focused on simplicity and minimal templating.
Handlebars is a simple templating language. It uses a template and an input object to generate HTML or other text formats.
Since this question was answered, a full-blown, native .NET library for Handlebars became available (disclosure: I am the primary author).
Handlebars.Net on GitHub and on NuGet
It compiles Handlebars templates to IL, and has excellent feature coverage.
