{Apache 2.0} breaks the page

Funny thing: If I put the text {Apache 2.0} in a page, it breaks 🤔 ({2} breaks it too)

Where was this placed?
markdown-it-attrs would recognise single curly braces as "attributes", though I'm not so sure how it breaks the page

For a workaround could try <span>{</span>apache 2.0<span>}</span> temporarily
A permanant component to "escape everything and have it show in the browser" is in the works #1049 (comment)

Putting it in any page in the CS2113 website seems to break the page. Only certain cases break. e.g., {abc} does not cause problems.
Thanks for the workaround. It's fine if the fix is on the way.

[ang-zeyu]

investigated it a little more just to be sure;

the html generated is as expected from markbind's standpoint; it only breaks when there are numbers as starting characters of the attributes e.g. 2.0 in apache 2.0 or 2, which isn't allowed by the browser

<p apache="" 2.0=""></p>

will close this since the problem is the same as #762 otherwise

Not quite the same though, at least from the author POV. Nunjucks doesn't have a {x} syntax (it uses double braces). So, the author will not realize the text is likely to cause problems. We often use { abc } as placeholders in document templates e.g., {your product name here}

ahh ok, the solution to both the problems would be the same though ( some sort of <escape>...</escape> component )
Since markdown-it-attrs isn't mentioned explicitly in the ug, we could particularly highlight this in #1106 meanwhile
