Savant

---

Savant is a powerful but lightweight object-oriented template system for PHP.

Unlike other template systems, Savant by default does not compile your templates into PHP; instead, it uses PHP itself as its template language so you don't need to learn a new markup system.

Savant has an object-oriented system of template plugins and output filters so you can add to its behavior quickly and easily.

Savant has an extensible error handling system. While Savant uses its own minimalist error class out-of-the-box, it supports PEAR_Error and PEAR_ErrorStack, as well as PHP5 exceptions. You can also add your own error classes to support your favorite framework error system. Error-handling hooks are provided in the standard Savant class.
