Now templates are in core, there is very little reason for Mantle to exist.
For Flow:
MobileFrontend:
Mantle [after Flow and MobileFrontend changes have been made]
Adding Zero in case this will have any impacts on them.
Once the above are done we should remove the dependency and deprecate the extension for the time being. We can always resurface it if needed.

Flow uses Lightncandy to deliver handlebars templates, but as I understand it the UI-Standardization effort is only adding mustache support to core (T330: Choose a standard template language doesn't say). Mobile and Flow may need to run local code to keep their Hogan and handlebars templates working, respectively.
Change 183977 had a related patch set uploaded (by Jdlrobson):
Remove Mantle dependency from MobileFrontend
Would it be possible to have Mantle skip loading when it detects it is run with a sufficiently recent version of mediawiki/core ?
@hashar mobile is now not using Mantle for anything. The dependency has also been removed https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/183977 although it's harmless when it's side by side.
Removing mobile-web tag since now this is on the Flow team.
Guys.. could you get this done? I'm really keen to stop supporting this extension. It's literally a copy and paste job and shouldn't take longer than 10 mins...

Remove Mantle from configuration

Remove Mantle from wmf-branch creation script
So it's no longer being branched, but is still in WMF config. Can this be finished off?

Remove files so people know this extension is no longer active
Would be good to get that last commit merged, so people know this isn't an active extension they have to maintain.
