The haml file stores source code written in HAML. HAML files are plain text files containing HAML code. It replaces <> tags with % sign to simplify code. ERB files can be replaced by HAML.
To open HAML files, use text editors like Sublime Text. Download and install Sublime Text. Links to download Sublime Text are on its official website.
To convert HTML to HAML, replace “erb” extension with “haml”. Rails adds HAML compiler if “haml” extension is used. Instance variables and helpers work the same in HAML as in ERB.
HAML file extension issues can happen if the system lacks proper HAML supporting applications. Download latest software that supports HAML file format. Also check HAML files for viruses.
On Windows, File Viewer Plus and other software can open HAML files.
With HTML, users can pick any file they want. JavaScript code can check file extension before submit to avoid wrong files. But malicious users can still submit any file.
