dispatch VS Twig

Dispatch - https://github.com/noodlehaus/dispatch

If OOP too much at this time, here is a procedural framework like Slim - https://github.com/noodlehaus/dispatch

Why though? If your customer is used to procedural code, you could still use classes, if you choose, in the base framework. Or is this an issue with keeping up with PHP 4 support per the readme? You've tested your "framework" with 5.3, so stick with 5.3 (go higher, please) and cut off PHP 4 support. Then, at least you can use Slim v2 to start. Still want procedural - here is noodlehaus/dispatch as a base.

You can also use this for a simpler API to help you get started- https://github.com/noodlehaus/dispatch

As you can see this template will add and configura the Pest test suite with a custom TestCase class that will start the application for your tests, making easy to test your application services (as used by Orkestra itself) and you will see a basic application, with a single route in the file config/routes.php that calls a Controller that simply render a Twig view.

Miscommunication in our projects is costly. A single misunderstood User Story can result in 3 days of wasted development time. Additionally, when developers do not use the same programming language, it may be necessary to construct APIs to facilitate communication, which can also be expensive. It is important to consider why front-end developers may be hesitant to work with Twig and how this can lead to a disconnect between front-end and back-end development.

The first step before generating the PDF is writing the HTML. To generate the HTML string, we will use the Twig template engine, which is the default one in Symfony. It comes with tons of features such as inheritance, blocks, filters, functions, and more.

In the phase of outputting data, you can use template engines like Twig or Blade or htmlspecialchars function.

Joomla dips into and out of php to get vars/logic into the frontend, which is fine, but it's nowhere near as tidy as a full-fledged templating engine like blade or twig which many other php CMSs offer out of the box.

FTLOG, use a template engine. Do NOT use PHP itself as a template engine (ironic given its origins). The best are probably Twig (https://twig.symfony.com/) (used by Symfony and a few others) and Latte (https://latte.nette.org/) (less widely used, but its syntax is *way* more learnable as it's more like PHP itself).

It took me a while to find a PHP project that was simple enough for me to set up on a single Docker image, but after some trial and error I found the Twig project.
