TempliPHy - a Simple PHP Template Engine
========================================

[](#templiphy---a-simple-php-template-engine)

A lightweight PHP template engine with moustache syntax for easy variable insertion and PHP code execution within your HTML templates.

---

Features
--------

[](#features)

✅ **Moustache Syntax**

- `{{ $variable }}` — Outputs a variable’s value
- `{{{ PHP code }}}` — Executes raw PHP code

✅ **Development & Production Modes**

- Development mode uses a temporary file for better error tracing.
- Production mode uses `eval()` for faster rendering.

✅ **Safe Variable Handling**

- Variables are extracted safely.
- Errors are handled gracefully with meaningful messages.

---

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Simply include `Template.php` in your project.

```
require_once 'Template.php';
```

---

-----
