TAG | template
Recently a colleague of mine found a PHP C extension Blitz used for templating.
Syntax looks a bit odd compared to Smarty but all in all super fast and a little crazy. I’ve also found a few template engine benchmarks to compare. Though benchmarks are still benchmarks and they sometimes tend to lie.
Over the years Smarty has became the standard PHP templating engine. It’s a bit rusty. But it’s clear syntax, plugin based system, template compilation is quite good for most cases.
I’ve also heard good things about DWOO. For it’s similarity to Smarty and OOP based approach.
