Is Smarty PHP good?
Is Smarty PHP good?
Why would I use Smarty (when PHP is a template engine)? The PHP programming language is great for code development but when mixed with HTML, the syntax of PHP statements can be a mess to manage. Therefore, Smarty is commonly a good fit when the roles of developers and designers are separated.
What is Smarty used for?
Smarty is a web template system written in PHP. Smarty is primarily promoted as a tool for separation of concerns. Smarty is intended to simplify compartmentalization, allowing the front-end of a web page to change separately from its back-end.
Is Smarty a PHP framework?
Smarty is a PHP-based templating engine/framework. It allows you to further separate your business logic from its visualization, by removing as much PHP code as possible away from your views. Some developers and frameworks prefer not to use a templating engine, others do prefer them to using plain PHP in your views.
What does a templating engine do?
A template engine enables you to use static template files in your application. At runtime, the template engine replaces variables in a template file with actual values, and transforms the template into an HTML file sent to the client. This approach makes it easier to design an HTML page.

Should I use EJS or react?
EJS is similar to the JSX part of this equation, but cannot talk to your React components. You would use JSX to write what your React components should return to the DOM in a friendlier, more readable way then what would be ordinarily written.
What makes Smarty different from other template engines?
The authors (and I too) would disagree. Smarty is different from the rest of the pack. What differentiates Smarty from other template engines like FastTemplate and patTemplate is that Smarty compiles your templates into PHP scripts, eliminating the overhead incurred in parsing the templates every time they’re accessed.
How much PHP knowledge is required to manage Smarty templates?
No PHP knowledge is required to manage Smarty templates. The importance of this separation is situational. It is commonly more important to web designers than it is to PHP developers.
What is Smarty and why should I use it?
Some might argue that Smarty does what PHP can do already: separate the presentation from business logic. The PHP programming language is great for code development but when mixed with HTML, the syntax of PHP statements can be a mess to manage. Smarty makes up for this by insulating PHP from the presentation with a much simpler tag-based syntax.
How does SM Smarty work with templates?
Smarty caches the output of the template contents, saving the overhead expense involved in retrieving your data from a data source. This data source would usually be external and slow, and is often the bottleneck in your application, like a remote database.
