Caffeinated Sapling is originally based off of Rob Crowe's [TwigBridge](https://github.com/rcrowe/TwigBridge) package; rebuilt from the ground up (not necessarily a fork). This is meant as a learning experience to get familiar with Twig, but also as an attempt to create a lighter-weight version of TwigBridge with a primary focus on Laravel 5. For a more robust and complete package, please go check out [TwigBridge](https://github.com/rcrowe/TwigBridge)!

Quick Installation
------------------

[](#quick-installation)

Begin by installing the package through Composer.

```
composer require caffeinated/sapling

```

Once this operation is complete, simply add the service provider class to your project's `config/app.php` file:

```
Caffeinated\Sapling\SaplingServiceProvider::class
```
