PHPX Compile compiles PHPX into more optimized PHP significantly reducing function calls when rendering PHPX files. With the example used in tests we see about a 6x speed improvement over plain PHPX

Compiled PHPX files are still plain PHP and can be swapped out for existing templates.

[!warning] This project is experimental and has not been proven. Expect PHPX Compile to not always produce working output.

<?php

$x = new Buttress\Phpx\Phpx();
$github = 'https://github.com/buttress/phpx';

return $x->render(
    $x->div(class: 'content', c: [
        $x->h1(id: 'title', c: 'Hello World!'),
        $x->p(c: [
            'Brought to you by ',
            $x->a(href: $github, c: 'PHPX')
        ]),
    ])
);

becomes

<?php
$x = new Buttress\Phpx\Phpx();
$github = 'https://github.com/buttress/phpx';
return '<div class="content"><h1 id="title">Hello World!</h1>'.'<p>Brought to you by '.'<a href="'.htmlspecialchars($github, 50).'">PHPX</a>'.'</p>'.'</div>';
