Aegis

##Template language (in development)

Introduction

Aegis is a flexible, dynamic templating language. It aims to be truly extendable. It comes with a default set of functionalities to help you with the basics of creating web layouts (template inheritance, printing data, iteration helpers, etc). However, if you decide to implement your own nodes and use it as a language with a completely different purpose, you're encouraged to do so. Actually, that's what Aegis is all about!

Installation

composer require reinvanoyen/aegis
