Updated on: 2016-10-06

Posted on:

Template engines are frequently used in PHP applications to generate Web pages or some kind of other output from template files or strings, as they make it easy to separate login from presentation code.

Usually you use a component that processes a template file or a string and replaces some variables with values passed to the template engine.

This package provides an alternative approach by using a trait that can be used by any class. The template variables are replaced by the values of class variables or return values of class functions with the same names.

This way developers can easily turn templates into classes of their own that they can call to generate their applications output.
