twigHow to use a Twig file in PHP?

Twig is a templating language for PHP, which allows developers to write concise and readable code. It is used to separate the presentation layer from the application logic.

To use a Twig file in PHP, you need to include the Twig library in your project and create a Twig environment.

// Include the Twig library
require_once 'vendor/autoload.php';

// Create a Twig environment
$loader = new \Twig\Loader\FilesystemLoader('templates');
$twig = new \Twig\Environment($loader);

The code above includes the Twig library and creates a Twig environment. The FilesystemLoader class is used to specify the directory where the Twig templates are stored.

To render a Twig template, you can use the render() method of the Environment class.

// Render a Twig template
echo $twig->render('template.twig', ['name' => 'John']);

The code above renders the template.twig template and passes the name variable with the value John to the template.
