Beautiful code. Easy to maintain

Object orientated and MVC patterns help keep your code structured and DRY.

index.php

class IndexController
{
    public function handle()
    {
        $context = Timber::get_context();
        $context['posts'] = Post::whereStatus('publish')
            ->limit(5)
            ->get();

        return new TimberResponse('index.twig', $context);
    }
}

index.twig

<div data-gb-custom-block data-tag="if">

    <h4>Recent Articles</h4>
    <ul>
        

<div data-gb-custom-block data-tag="for">

            <li class="article">
                <h3>{{ $post->title }}</h3>
                {{ $post->preview }}
                <a href="{{ $post->link }}">Read the full story</a>
            </li>
