are written in a clear and straightforward syntax, which allows you to embed logic directly into your HTML. This can include things like displaying products dynamically, formatting prices, or showing different content based on certain conditions (for example, hiding content for visitors not logged into customer accounts).
Twig also supports features like template inheritance, which lets you reuse and extend templates, reducing code repetition.
Some key features of Twig include:
- Filters modify the output of variables, such as converting text to uppercase or formatting dates
- Functions perform operations like including other templates or generating URLs within templates
- Template inheritance allows you to create a base template and extend it with more specific templates, making it easier to maintain and update your design
