Smarty Links
22nd April 2003
I’m using Smarty in a project at Uni at the moment, mainly as a tool to allow team members to modify different parts of the codebase without stepping on each other’s toes. I’ve seen some good arguments against templating solutions such as Smarty, based around the point that PHP is already a templating engine so the extra layer of abstraction just isn’t necessary. Never-the-less, I’ve been finding that Smarty dramatically improves my productivity even when I’m working on my own. Here are the links I’ve provided for my team members to help get them up to scratch on how it can be used:
- The Smarty Website
- The Smarty Manual
- The Smarty FAQ
- The Smarty Wiki (which I founded last year)
- The new Smarty Forums
- Zend’s first Smarty tutorial
- Zend’s Advanced Smarty tutorial
- The Dynamic Duo of PEAR::DB and Smarty (although we’re using ezSQL)
