Differences from HandlebarsJS

HandlebarsPHP aims to be compatible with a subset of HandlebarsJS. For performance reasons it compiles the templates ahead of time and this necessitates some restrictions.

  1. Since it's impossible to tell whether a tag like {{foo}} is a helper or a property at compile time, we assume that its a property. We differentiate helpers by looking for arguments, for example {{foo 1}} will be interpretted as a function call because it has an argument. This means that it is impossible to call a helper with zero arguments.

  2. {{@key}} and {{@index}} always point to the same variable, because foreach is used for all iteration.
