Views & Templates

Blade-like Template Engine

Templates use .sw.php extension and live in app/Views/:

Layout (app/Views/layouts/app.sw.php):

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>@yield('title') - My App</title>
    @yield('head')
</head>
<body>
    @yield('content')
    @yield('scripts')
</body>
</html>

Page (app/Views/home.sw.php):

@extends('layouts.app')

@section('title')Home@endsection

@section('content')
    <h1>Welcome, {{ $name }}</h1>

    @if($isAdmin)
        <p>Admin panel: <a href="/admin">Go</a></p>
    @else
        <p>You are a regular user.</p>
    @endif

    <ul>
    @foreach($items as $item)
        <li>{{ $item }}</li>
    @endforeach
    </ul>

    @include('partials.footer')
@endsection

Rendering:

$engine = new Engine(
    viewsPath: __DIR__ . '/app/Views',
    cachePath: __DIR__ . '/storage/cache',
);

// In a route handler
$html = $engine->render('home', ['name' => 'Alice', 'isAdmin' => true, 'items' => ['A', 'B']]);
return Response::html($html);

// Or use ViewResponse
$view = new ViewResponse($engine);
return $view->make('home', ['name' => 'Alice']);
