The subject matter described herein relates to a templating system and method. In the templating system and method, each of the domain model and the graphic model are defined according to a template, and the corresponding elements of the domain model and graphic model are created. Next, a binder is created, which associates corresponding attributes in domain and graphic models. Path expressions such as XPath expressions, are used to describe locations in the domain and graphic models. These path expressions, templates, and binders are interpreted or called by a framework, which performs detailed synchronization.
