Blade templating engine
Laravel supports the Blade templating engine. Blade combines one or more templates with a data model to produce resulting views, doing that by transpiling the templates into cached PHP code for improved performance.
Blade also provides a set of its own control structures such as conditional statements and loops, which are internally mapped to their PHP counterparts.
Furthermore, Laravel services may be called from Blade templates, and the templating engine itself can be extended with custom directives.
