STE Template Engine
===================
The STE Template Engine (STE) is a template engine for the PHP programming
language.
Get it via composer / packagist
-------------------------------
[Composer](https://getcomposer.org) is a dependency manager and package manager for PHP. Using composer is the recommended way of installing STE.
Just put `kch42/ste` in your requirements (I suggest using the version `1.*`) and execute `composer install`. Then include composer's autoloader and you can simply use all stuff in the `\kch42\ste` namespace without further `require`s or `include`s. Awesome!
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/).
