Which language do you use for your templates nowadays? Just plain old PHP? Or are you still using Smarty? In this presentation, I will introduce you to Twig, a new generation template language which overcomes limitations found in many other templating engine like. Twig is fast, secure, and flexible. What does it mean? Come to this session and let's start an argument.

I don't really think templating is a necessary component of web development, and I think it can and in almost all cases should be avoided.

I never really understood the need for a template language with PHP but after reading Febian's thought on the subject I am open to discussion on the topic so this would be gereat.

I thik, it is good idea, to make template filse smaller. It loads faster, and it is much easier to maintain, if you don't have a lot o lines of code :) I think, Twig is a good tool, and it will be better :)
