Stupid Template Engine ====================== The Stupid Template Engine (STE) is a template engine for the PHP programming language. Requirements ------------ PHP >= 5.3 Why should you use it? ---------------------- * It's syntax (inspired by Textpattern's template syntax) is very easy and similar to the syntax of (X)HTML. So it should be easy for designers to learn this system. * It has a simple, yet powerful plugin interface. You can easily define your own template functions / tags. It is even possible to write them in the template language itself, which makes it kind of a programming language... * It can transcompile templates into PHP. * You can use anonymous functions to define custom tags. Documentation ------------- The `docu` directory contains the documentation of the template language. If you need the documentation of the php code / the API, you can create it with the `mkdocu.sh` script. You will need [NaturalDocs](http://www.naturaldocs.org/) for that. There is also a mirror of the documentation [here](http://r7r.kch42.net/ste_docu/).
