Interface Streamable
public interface Streamable
Represents some data that may be streamed out to a writer. Allows components in the rendering pipeline to
generate their output lazily and directly to the final output buffer instead of passing a lot of temporary
intermediate strings.
Error Handling: Note that streamables are responsible for their own error handling. If your streamable throws an exception, chances are the error will propagate and kill the whole thing being rendered, so exceptions should be reserved for real infrastructure or programming errors. Errors in parsing or processing that are encountered during rendering should be handled inside the streamable itself (such as writing some kind of error to the output stream)
