This implies that PHP code is application logic, and is separated from the presentation. > > Some of Smarty's features: > > - It is extremely fast. > - It is efficient since the PHP parser does the dirty work. > - No template parsing overhead, only compiles once. > - It is smart about recompiling only the template files that have changed. > - You can easily create your own custom functions and variable modifiers, so the template language is extremely extensible. > - Configurable template `{delimiter}` tag syntax, so you can use `{$foo}, {{$foo}}, `, etc. > - The `{if}..{elseif}..{else}..{/if}` constructs are passed to the PHP parser, so the `{if...}` expression syntax can be as simple or as complex an evaluation as you like. > - Allows unlimited nesting of sections, if's etc. > - Built-in caching support. > - Arbitrary template sources. > - Template Inheritance for easy management of template content. > - Plugin architecture.

It has taken the good bits from Symfony2, ZendFramework2 & Doctrine2 and combined them together to create a solid and very easy web application framework. It can be considered the boilerplate of PHP frameworks. ### Health Score 28 — LowBetter than 54% of packages Maintenance10 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity15 Limited adoption so far Community12 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity64 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 80.8% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
