Question

Django treats {{ var }} as some variable in its template. How can I escape {{ var }} or {{ or }} such that django does not treat it as variable.

<p>"{{ some text }}"</p> Should prints exactly the same.

Answer 1

I believe you are looking for the templatetag template tag.

As the linked-to doc states,

Since the template system has no concept of “escaping”, to display one of the bits used in template tags, you must use the {% templatetag %} tag.

For example:

<p>"{% templatetag openvariable %} some text {% templatetag closevariable %}"</p>

will appear as so:

<p>"{{ some text }}"</p>
