This is part of the Cosmo template language, and is a conditional
block. If the first element of the items array in the template
environment is not nil or false then the block will expand to the
first block inside [==[ ]==], otherwise it will expand to the block
after the comma.

This is also Cosmo: there must be an array of tables in the template
environment called items, and Cosmo will repeatedly expand the block
for each table in this array in a template environment where each key
is bound to the corresponding value. These are all explained in the
the documentation for Cosmo: http://mascarenhas.github.io/cosmo/
