We do not need any template engine

Helllo collaborators,

I came to know that we can do all the template inheritance (using the base.php in all the pages with common components with just php).

I have found the snippet. i am adding that in sample please have a look.

Yeah i saw it and its cool. Still i will recommend using a template engine Smarty specifically.

Using a template engine has various benefits to us :

• Seperates views and html i.e backend(coding) and frontend(html/css)
• Helps to implement DRY (Don't repeate yourself principle )
• More cleaner code
• Differ the coder and the Desginer, both can work seperately.
• It offers speed and scalability.
• Tracks various code related issues
• includes easy caching option
• Biggest one: Easy to use, install and Still offers to use normal php files.

Good Points that truly justifies that we should use a smarty template engine. This could make our work better.

But as per the yesterday discussion as we decided not to make the code more complex, as we want people to maintain the code further, So we are using the template inheritance
