Jayponents
==========

[](#jayponents)

Written by Jason den Dulk

Construct documents with heirarchical components.

### Features

[](#features)

- Usable with any template engine via adaptors. Uses PHP by default.
- Hierarchical. Components can be added to other Components to create docuemnts of arbitrary complexity. No need for partials, layouts or helpers as `Component` can be used for all of these roles.
- You can create custom component classes that allow you to have extra, specific business logic that can be kept out of the template, or handle boilerplate you dont want to have repeated in every template file.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

PHP v7.1.0 or greater.

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require jaypha/jayponents

```
