Usage
To render a template:
If you want to add new syntax you can use the addToken method after initializing the template engine.
You can also pass a callable as the second argument to the addToken method to use preg_replace_callback instead for the replacement.
Overriding Syntax
One thing which is quite original about Affinity4 Template is that it allows you to replace the Syntax class with your won simple class to create a template language of your own.
It easy to add all the features currently in Affinity4 Template by simply extending the Affinity4\Template\Tokenizer class and implementing the Affinity4\Template\SyntaxInterface. From there you need only add rules for variables, loops etc. and extend and block syntax. If you do not add extend or block rules that functionality will simply not be available.
Here is an example of creating a Blade style syntax of your own
You then simply use dependency injection when calling the Template Engine class
The your layout template (views/layout/master.blade) can be:
In views/home.blade...
