What can I use in a template to figure out the route name that is associated with the route that I am currently on?
route name
For example if I configured a route
You can define any options you want in your route config :
Router.route('/', { name : 'home', template : 'home', title: 'Home' });
and then access to title with this :
Router.current().route.options.title
This will output "Home"
