Timber is a PHP library that lets developers build WordPress themes using object-oriented code and the Twig template engine. It separates data/logic in PHP from HTML presentation in Twig files for cleaner, more maintainable theme code.
Use cases
- build wordpress themes with twig templates
- separate php logic from html in wordpress
- write oop wordpress theme code
- replace the wordpress loop with cleaner templating
- create custom wordpress themes faster
When to choose
- you develop WordPress themes and want Twig templating
- you want clean separation of data logic and presentation in WordPress
- you prefer OOP patterns over traditional WordPress template files
When to avoid
- you build non-WordPress PHP projects
- you prefer classic WordPress PHP template hierarchy
- you need a plugin-style install rather than Composer
