Blade is the simple, yet powerful templating engine provided with Laravel. Unlike other PHP templating engines, Blade does not restrict you from using plain PHP code in your views. All Blade views are compiled into plain PHP code and cached until they are modified, meaning Blade adds essentially zero overhead to your application.
In this beginner’s guide, we’ll cover the basics of Blade syntax, directives, and how to create dynamic content in your views. By the end, you’ll be able to create and extend layouts and templates in your Laravel applications with ease.
