You don’t need a framework for this (PHP partials 1/5)
1. Problem & Philosophy
PHP projects become hard to maintain when structure is missing. One symptom: repeated HTML/PHP fragments copied and tweaked everywhere.
Solution: partials—small, reusable templates. They keep code modular, readable, maintainable.
The key is rules: explicit inputs, no business logic, shallow nesting.
Structured, consistent, reusable components matter more than frameworks.
