Twig Reference

Twig is Chyrp Lite's template engine. Each page of a Chyrp Lite website is constructed by processing one or more template files known as twigs, each of which provides a piece of the web page that will eventually be displayed to the visitor. Twig template files use a ".twig" file extension.

If you want to create or modify a template file, be sure to read the extensive documentation for designers and developers available at the Twig homepage.
