Templating Engine Pros and Cons with Zend Framework
- by manyxcxi
I am getting familiar with Zend Framework (and MVC with PHP in general) for a personal project. I have previous experience with Smarty and have no major gripes with it, but I would like to use this project as a good in-depth learning exercise. Those of you familiar with different templating engines and ZF: Do you believe there are better templating engines than Smarty in conjunction with ZF and why? I would like to apply what I learn to the real world and production environments.
The personal project will be fairly robust. User management, sessions, security, database interaction, form input, jQuery, etc.
