twigHow to use Twig with a PHP MVC framework?

Twig is a templating engine for PHP that can be used with a PHP MVC framework. It allows developers to write concise, readable code that is easy to maintain.

<?php
$loader = new Twig_Loader_Filesystem('templates');
$twig = new Twig_Environment($loader);

echo $twig->render('index.html', array('name' => 'Fabien'));

This example code will render the index.html template located in the templates directory, and pass the variable name with the value Fabien to the template.

Parts of the code:

• Twig_Loader_Filesystem('templates'): Loads the templates directory as the Twig template directory.
• Twig_Environment($loader): Creates a new Twig environment with the given loader.
• render('index.html', array('name' => 'Fabien')): Renders the index.html template with the given variables.
