Displaying the linked users on the Profile page


Again, we'll start by updating our templates. In the previous chapter, we created frontend/tpl/profile.html. It contains a form that we use for profile updates. Let's add the following code after it:

  <div class="hero">
    <h1>Friends</h1>
  </div>
  <div class="friends-list">
    {{#each friends:index}}
      <div class="friend-list-item">
        <h2>{{friends[index].firstName}}  {{friends[index].lastName}}</h2>
      </div>
    {{/each}}
  </div>
{{/if}}
