Correct way to write helper functions in Meteor

Question

I'm new to Meteor and I'm trying to figure out the difference between writing:

Template.main.folks =
  function () {
    return Clients.find();
};

and writing it using "helpers":

Template.main.helpers({
  folks: function () {
    return Clients.find();
});

Are they the same thing?

没什么区别，但第一个很快就会被删除。如果你这样做，它仍然会运行，但会给你deprecated警告
