Modern Twig 3.x support for CakePHP 2.x with PSR-4 namespaces and PHP 8.1+. This plugin integrates the [Twig Templating Language](https://twig.symfony.com/) with [CakePHP 2](https://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/), providing access to helpers, elements, and themes. Note For CakePHP 5.x, use the official [cakephp/twig-view](https://github.com/cakephp/twig-view) package instead.

[m3nt0r-legacy/cakephp-twig-view](https://github.com/m3nt0r-legacy/cakephp-twig-view) - Original implementation by Kjell Bublitz 2. [predominant/TwigView](https://github.com/predominant/TwigView) - Fork by Graham Weldon (archived in 2019) - **Direct fork source** 3. [cakephp/legacy-twig-view](https://github.com/cakephp/legacy-twig-view) - CakePHP community version (formerly WyriHaximus/TwigView, deprecated) 4. **pieceofcake2/twig-view** (this repository) - Modernized fork with Twig 3.x and PHP 8.1+ support The original repositories supported Twig 1.x with CakePHP 2.x but are no longer maintained. This fork updates the codebase to work with modern PHP and Twig versions while maintaining CakePHP 2.x compatibility. ### Health Score 32 — LowBetter than 72% of packages Maintenance65 Regular maintenance activity Popularity0 Limited adoption so far Community14 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity44 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor2 2 contributors hold 50%+ of commits How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
