PHP template engine, for PHP templates.


travis-ci status codecov.io license release


Foil brings all the flexibility and power of modern template engines to native PHP templates. Write simple, clean and concise templates with nothing more than PHP.

Key Features

...and many more

Why?

Templates engines like Twig, or Blade are a great thing, really.

However, to use them one needs to learn another language with its own syntax and rules.

Moreover, using compiled engines to use even a simple PHP function one needs to write engine extension.

On its side, PHP is already a templating language, but honestly it's not a good one, because it's missing pivotal features of modern template engines, like template inheritance.


Requirements

Foil is framework agnostic, only thing needed is PHP 5.4+ and Composer to add Foil to you PHP project.
