I’m currently using the Smarty templating system for our production site, but am curious how much of a performance hit I’m taking by using this templating engine. Are there faster alternatives? Is there a way to code so I may not have to use such a templating system? Thank you!
You don’t need an external templating engine to separate code from presentation, you just need logic for that. PHP itself is perfectly fine as a template engine — just don’t mix PHP code and HTML. Template engines are just easier to learn for a non programmer web designer.
