Twig is a templating tool for PHP, not JavaScript. But,it is possible to use Twig with JavaScript in certain scenarios:
Server-side rendering: Use Twig on the server-side with PHP to generate HTML, and then send the rendered HTML to the client-side for JavaScript to manipulate.
Client-side templating: Use a JavaScript implementation of Twig, like Twig.js, to render templates on the client-side. This allows you to separate presentation logic from your JavaScript code.
Hybrid approach: Use Twig on the server-side for initial HTML rendering and then use JavaScript to dynamically update parts of the page.
Twig.js is a JavaScript port of the Twig templating engine, allowing you to use Twig templates in JavaScript projects. It supports most Twig features, including variables, conditionals, loops, and functions.
Example of using Twig.js:
const twig = require('twig');
const template = twig.twig({
data: 'Hello {{ name }}!'
});
const html = template.render({ name: 'John' });
